What's Looking good in March 2020

I don't grow daffs in the ground, they flower the first year but the next year they don't come up so I've put them in a big pot.

 

Nice flowers Logan.

Posted a short video clip of some of what is flowering in my own garden today. Not all looking perfectly good but considering the weather has been too bad to do much gardening for the last while I think there is at least some that looks good.

 

Thank you @Macraignil

 

Some things in flower on Dydd Gwyl Dewi...
Hepatica from seed (out of focus because it was blowing in the wind)

This Ipheion has been flowering for many weeks

The Kniphofia Christmas Cheer was in flower at Christmas and still going strong

Grevillia semperflorens in a pot outside
Grevillea (maybe Olympic Flame?) in a pot outside

Grevillea Mt Tamboritha in a pot outside

 

Hippeastrum ( Amaryllis )

Summertime



Premier



Hyacinth

Blue Giant



This is probably one of the best Hyacinths I have ever grown. Around 18 inches high with a head of almost 12 inches of gorgeously scented deep purple striped blue flowers.

 

Outside now......

Fantastic year for Pieris





Leucojum



Crocus



Narcissus Rip van Winkle



Narcissus Jetfire



Tulip ( forgot the name )



Iberis just starting




Aubrieta just starting



These Carnations have been flowering all Winter, I wish I'd planted them up now and put them In the greenhouse.

 

I have a few cyclamen in a large container that are doing well and obviously increasing. My hyacinths have come out like singles this year, in the past they have been very tall and needed staking, plus the flowers were previously very tight and compact. Colours have changed, but very attractive. Some Polyanthus are in bloom but the plants remain small. Several roses, especially the climbers already have flower buds, Rosa;Iceberg has not stopped flowering since the season before last. Ribes sanginaria is in full flower.

 

Hi @JWK - I've looked it up, and I got the kniphofia from Sarah and Julian Sutton of Desirable Plants. Their list said "The colour is a rather drab pale orange" but I think it looks pretty good for that time of the year! I don't think I've seen it on their list since - they only sell spares from their garden rather than a fully fledged nursery.

just some tete-a-tete daffs showing their colours at church, earlier this week.
(A few years ago we had a lovely spring display for an early Easter service. The spent bulbs were planted in the grounds, and seem to be doing well!)
