Herbaceous perennials are developing quickly now, and I love the contrast they provide with the stiffer look of bulb plants. Columbine are budding, Euphorbia and Heuchera look bigger every time I go outside.
I had been many years since I'd grown any parrot tulips, I'd forgotten how gnarly and strange the buds look!
"...and don't think the garden loses its ecstasy in winter. It's quiet, but the roots are down there riotous." Rumi
