What's Looking Good in March

Chionodoxa I planted last autumn have flowered this week. And as a bonus there are some around the garden of the new bungalow already, planted by the previous owners.

 

Anemone nemorosa.


Ipheion "Tessa"

Ferula communis

 

Daffs in my garden putting on a good show this year

 

In the greenhouse is a Jasmine that I rescued from Homebase a few weeks ago for fifty pence! Almost completely dried out most of the buds had fallen off (as you can see in the photo) but a few weeks on it has perked up and is producing new growth and flower buds................


The greenhouse is starting to smell heavenly as well!

 

After that success @longk think we'll have to change your name from lonk to Plant Doctor! Well rescued

 

Hardly. It's almost impossible to kill a Jasmine

 

I'd prefer Doctor Longk,sounds authoritive

 

Unless your name is "M" (but that was last century and a sense that: "I've bought it, what more does it want?" attitude )

So, yes! To *me*, that is a good rescue!! (but, the cake I was going to give you in honour of your success, I'll keep to myself now ... seeing as you think it was an easy task )

 

Minus the "g" though: Dr Lonk Rolls off the tongue better.

 

We've been down that road before

Streptocarpus



Pleased with this one, cost me 30p from a charity shop and never grown it before

PS.... Bought it as a small rooted cutting last summer and grown it on through the Winter.

 

Bonus price and bonus flower too: can't be bad! Well done

 

A couple of quick ones from my garden this evening before the light faded.

Part of my 'wild' area at the bottom of the garden. Daffodils, cowslips, celandine and bluebells are all flowering now.



Forsythia coming into flower now, makes a pleasing combination with a Fatsia.
