We have Sweet Woodruff in bloom at Maypop. We use it to make May wine...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_wine I'd heard about it from my grandparents who were not able to enjoy it in this country because it doesn't grow in S. FL. A little May wine, a few smoked eels.
Does rhe Jessamine smell as heavenly as Jasmine? It's lovely. New things are starting to show everyday here now. First 2 Standard Dwarf Bearded Iris opened this morning. This is Ruby Wings, a favorite.
No irises but the primroses are starting. Sat is COLD and rainy! Into the low 40s and down to 32!
I just bought a double white wood anemone at a local wildflower seller's stand in our tiny town.
The Erythronium japonicum is a lovely color. My yellow pogoda ones are fading away already. Sure happy I started adding SDB Iris to the edges of my beds a few years ago. They fill in this time before the tall bearded Iris and the columbines start to bloom. I have many that need to be divided if anyone wants some, just Cmail me. This is Ruby Eruptions.
