April Flowers



First time I noticed this shrub... Seems to be a viburnum rufidulum.



The Helianthemums are blooming... Last year, I was calling these Helianthemum Carolinium. Now... Ima call them Helianthemum georgianum.


The buckeye shrubs are looking good.



The columbine are spectacular! I'm working on new beds inside the wire for the hybrids, and the Canadian columbines are fixing to get moved into the yard.

Hawthorn (above) and mock orange (below).

Last year the voles got my seeds as quickly as I could plant them... this year... I thought I might get the seeds to come up... These few containers worked so well that I planted 4 dozen more... only to see the birds eat all the sprouting seeds...

Your field of Columbine made my heart stop! How beautiful....I can imagine the enjoyment you get from them.....they are one of my favorites........they're coming up here but it'll be a while before they blossom. Thanks so much for sharing! Sally

I don't think I've ever seen such a mass of columbine...gorgeous! Love the buckeye too! I found several growing in our woods and am waiting to spot a hummingbird at the blooms. Enjoy your spring!
