Not one...not yet...but today the birds have come back. Not sure if robins or Baltimore orioles, but they are flapping and the ducks are dabbling and diving...so soon there will be flowers.
But as of today...the day we depart of three weeks in Singapore – Sri Lanka and the Malabar Coast of
India...I can’t see one thing in the garden...
so there are no pictures because they would all be
of snow, bare branches and some conifers that you
have already seen.
The Snow Drops are even smothered.
The hellebores cannot compete with layers upon layer of snow engulfing them for six weeks. SIX WEEKS.
I don’t know what to think, but take heart after being reassured tonight by Dennis Limonius a person I implicitly trust who knows our land and our cycles because he grew up with them, says everything is going to be alright. That the broadleaf evergreens might suffer a litte, but for the most part no fear. The snow cover has been a blessing.
And he said this to me in the Parish hall of our Church...so it must be true.
SOON IT WILL Be Time to Plant
Here are the lilies I can’t get enough of...and there is plenty of time to have them in your garden this summer
The glorious Glorioso rothschildiana
Such a truly divine vine.
Turk’s cap with butterfly!
The Calla ‘Mango’ is the showiest in my garden and somehow magically blends with everything else
The famous ‘Stargazer’, I think it’s Stargazer, there
are many that all look alike and the fantastic thing is
that they proliferate.
Here is the sweetest breath of spring.
