For the last two days the air here has been filled with dandelion seeds floating in the breeze. It's like an alien invasion!<br />I've just bought Trillium grandiflorum so I hope it reappears next year. I find them hard to establish, which may be a sign that I should stop trying (lol).easygardenerhttp://greenforks.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099706683992013607.post-45350872645964534912009-05-05T17:32:00.000-04:002009-05-05T17:32:00.000-04:00Gail - all the carex I grow do well with little wa...Gail - all the carex I grow do well with little water - I've got very sandy soil. I had one species variety - name escapes me with very coarse broad leaves that needed far more water than I'd provide - otherwise every single carex in my garden must do just fine in drought conditions.<br />B. Thank you!<br />Frances - glad to oblige - and so pleased to have something to show. The wind was chilly today - good for keeping the tulips in blossom.<br />G. Sooo true about wanting what you can't have - after I saw the roses in Oregon, I lust after their weather and those scented beauties.Barbarapchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09990013417063903768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099706683992013607.post-50709007913794848622009-05-04T22:56:00.000-04:002009-05-04T22:56:00.000-04:00My favourite of all your pretty flowers there is t...My favourite of all your pretty flowers there is the quince. I admired these so much in the mild island climate of BC. I think one always wants what they cannot have though, and I'll have to move to grow one of those.

The ferns are wonderful and your captures do indeed portray the magic of the unfurling. The grand trillium grows here also, though not as heartily. The epimedium is a stunner. Love it all and look forward to more! :-)<br />FrancesFranceshttp://fairegarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099706683992013607.post-53046852098024937342009-05-04T16:43:00.000-04:002009-05-04T16:43:00.000-04:00Lovely 'Springphotoes'
