I know it's a little early, but with our 60 and 70 degree temps,
I just had to purchase a few plants to brighten up a little corner of my yard.

Delphinium double 'Wishful Thinking ....................Zonal Geraniums


Foxglove Digitalis Purpurea ................................ First Bloom of year 'Recurring Dream Iris'

Oh Janice that is soo pretty.

WOW, your foxglove's blooming already?!

I can't wait for mine to bloom! These biennials take a lot of patience.

Thanks, Debbie.

Your flowers are just gorgeous! Love the colors!!

LOL, I bought the foxglove and gardenias at Home Depot yesterday. I'm going back tomorrow for more. I love it. They were kinda high but I love the colors.

Now, I will have to find myself a pretty concrete basket like yours, I love it!

Oh I so jealous of your good weather... can't wait for spring here in MA!!!! love the iris...

about being jealous of the weather. It has turned cold here again, we might even get a dusting of snow tomorrow.

LOL, well, my husband said it is supposed to go down to 40 in the morning. But after that our highs are predicted in the mid 70's. So who knows. I have learned in the past to wait til March 15 to purchase plants, but I just couldn't help myself yesterday.

And Lynn, several of my succulents made in thru the winter (not that we really had winter this year). I'll post pics on your thread later on.

Can't wait to see how they are doing Debbie.

We haven't had much of a winter this year either.

Thanks, Debbie. That basket is SO heavy.

A real treat

That basket is nice!! Love it!! Looking at these pictures makes me want to plant my pots. Way to early for me. Enjoy looking at yours.

Nice to see a breath of spring while it's 35° here. Very pretty Debbie.

Karen

Huge snow flakes falling here off and on, with wind. Nothing sticking. Pretty to look at, nasty be go out in.

Some winter containers. As the weather warms the pansys will show a bit more color. So much rain in the last few weeks.

We have nothing but bare ground and snow. Cardinals are singing their mateing calls so spring is close.

Very pretty springcolor, thank you for the photos. Well, I have been doing some research on Geraniums and I'm afraid I might get hooked. LOL

JoAnn, I'll send you some warm air up your way. I can't wait to start seeing your pretty flowers this year. I'm so happy I don't live where it snows.

Brrrr Karen and Lynn. Would ya'll like some of this warmth too? :smily:

Our weather forecast for the next week is Lowest morning 55 Highest afternoon 80. But again, it's been known to change quickly, so I still have to cool my garden energy for a few more weeks.

Feb. and March are really hard on us northerners. We are sick of winter
Ordering spring plants gets us jazzed for blooms
Its 2 more months before we see a crocus.

I'll take the warmth, its going to 50 today but 30 at night. Then temps will be in the 30's. At least the waves of warm air are on their way.

Sighhhhh, it will be in the mid 40's today with sun. Now I have to try and get the back yard mowed before it starts raining again tomorrow and for at least the next week.
We are having just enough warmth to trigger growth in the lawn. This is not good, the far back yard still has places that are quite wet and can't be mowed.
