Rushing Into Mid-Spring

Brunnera Jack Frost

 

My Brunnera plants are in full bloom.  We were in the 30's at night this past week and then suddenly we warmed up to the 70's during the day.  What a change!  The weather forecast predicts high 50's at night and mid to upper 70's all next week. Although the early cherry trees are finished blooming in the neighborhood, all the late cherry trees are in full bloom.

I love the blue color of the Brunnera flowers, a blue not frequently found in flowers.


Tulip


This is a tulip from a pot of tulips I bought at the grocery store last year.  I have not planted tulips because of the many deer that roam through the yard. But my husband insisted on planting the bulbs I was going throw out, in an out of the way place, where the deer don't seem to roam anymore at the base of some holly bushes.  And low and behold, they are blooming and have not been eaten! 


Daffodils

These are late blooming daffodils that are in four of the yard's gardens.



Catmint


The early blooming daffodils have died off and catmint is emerging behind them.
