New Flowers March 28
Flowers opening this week,
including daffodils, japanese maples, forsythia.
This time of year things change very
fast. Lots of things opened this week, including these
daffodils:This is Snowbird,
a double
white.
This
is
Precocious
This
is
Chromacolor
This
is Salome. It opens with a yellow trumpet - later the trumpet changes to an
apricot
color.
This
is Replete - a double with a salmon colored
center.
This
is the white with a double yellow center that opened last week. Notice how the
center has now faded to a very pale yellow, almost
white.
The
japanese maples have just stated to open. The earliest in my garden is Acer
palmatum "Orange Dream," which opens a beautiful color, orange with red
edges.
My
weeping cherry is just beginning to open its flowers,
too.
The
forsythia is out, too. I have two different varieties, this is the suspensa.
There
are also a couple of new perennials out, too. The Bluets have appeared in the
lawn.
The
creeping phlox is in bloom, too. I have a couple of varieties. The pink one is
the first
out.
