I would have guessed foxglove too.. mine are very green already.. I will take a pic of mine tomorrow and we can compare

no she is not in heat.. Lily is just getting done (might have had a false pregnancy btw.. taking her to the vet next Tuesday.. might have milk in there.. very bad)

I love jump ups!!!.. they don't jump here too often the last few years.. I will have to plant some more seeds

A couple plants didn't come back in there was wondering why I some empty spaces. Another reason I love Bluestone they replace them no questions asked.

Oh Jen, I am so happy you have tulips...

I am so very angry at the deer that has come and ate ALL my tulips, munch on several of my irises and DL.. I am so angry... Grumbling about to buy a gun or just fence my garden... I will have NOT even one tulip this year... I can't believe it...

Oh Alison I loved Hope howling... my Lilly used to do that on command! I miss it so much...
Diamond is in BIG trouble with me today... she has peed at the landing (inside) by the front door 5 times today... we believe is vengeance because I did not let her outside with me while I was gardening today - which was not much... but she is just absolutely a rascal sometimes... so I have been ignoring her for a while after telling her NO ... and pointing etc... she KNOWS what she has done... really knows... and she shows us... oh I could just not believe it... maybe she wants to go outside to pee?? oh I don't know... she has the blue chuks but who knows!?

Love the fairy garden!!!
Keep those pics coming... nothing blooming yet for me... but I cheated and got pansies...

Well, a girl has got to have pretty flowers!!!

Some pics of green things... and some of my succulents ( I am afraid that sedum will break the pot, but I could not get that out without breaking it... so lets see what will happen!

This is my attempt at a 3 tier succulent container... I am going to use only hardy succulents this time - maybe one day I will just try the other succulents but I don't have a place to overwinter them ...
I post

The top one

I left enough room for growth and put some of the smaller rocks I painted...

The pics are not that great... I am not sure what is happening to my camera - usually I don't re-touch the pics... just crop when it needs it but this time I don't actually like it... too bad I have no money for a fancy camera...oh well ...

Fun watching the gardens wake up. Those succulent containers will look great. Great fairy garden pics, especially that one with the fern poking up.
