Whats Looking Good in February 2014

Viburnum Bodnantense 'Dawn'

A new purchase last autumn Garrya Elliptica, potted on before planting as it was only small, doing well now though.

Viburnum Tinus nearly open.

Hellebore Argutifolius nearly open too

 

Looking good all, saw some Daffs and Snowdrops at Sherwood Forest on the weekend. No pics though!

Spring is upon us! (I swear it!)

 

With the looks of your crocus Woo I think it has arrived!

 

Lovely coloured Hellebore Simbad!

 

More Snowdrops....

 

Love your double snow drops Loli,
Jenny

 

Great pics Armandii and Loli - I'm still struggling to find much going on in my garden.

 

Battered by the gale force wind and squally showers, I'm surprised to see the crocuses (croci?) are standing up, and with occasional sunshine, opening up their cheery faces.







A couple of clematis from a neighbour's garden, they've been flowering since last October and still going strong. I'm tempted to help myself with a few seeds later when they are ready

 

Wonderful collection of welcome Spring colour Hsuh. I wouldn't have expected to see clematis out now,
Jenny

 

Lovely pics HsuH...My Armandii is just starting to make buds but no real show yet...

 

Thanks Jenny and Loli

There are a few winter flowering variety of clematis. They are evergreen and have a very long flowering season, so they cheer up the boring winter garden nicely. That's why I'm interested in having some in our garden, especially the C. cirrhosa Freckles.

 

Snow drops everywhere..........................




Iris reticulata "Clairette" just starting.....................
