New perennials for 2017
Comments (12)Mmm, new salvias for me too (from Robin Smith) - spathacea, stolonifera, forskaoli, purple leaf macrophylla, involucrata 'Boutin', Penny's Smile and Christine Yeo - a greggii/chamaedryoides hybrid I had and mistakenly gave away before propagating. Fast from seed...plus a freebie yellow (name escapes me but not glutinosa, which lurks in the woods). Salvia is a cyclical craze for me...and I am currently going through an 'on' phase. To be entirely honest, the bulleyana looks more 'interesting' than totally desirable. I grew yellow and purple salpiglossis one year (shudder) and swore not to go down that colour route again. Then again, I have said this about many plants - some of which went on to become beloved....See MoreFirst perennials to flower this season
Comments (7)I don't have all that many perennials anymore but of what I do grow, Erysimum 'Apricot Twist', Geranium 'Max Frei' and the lupines are in full bloom. As is Veronica 'Georgia Blue', variegated London Pride, geums, sunroses and a couple of Pacific Coast hybrid iris. And my first spring showing of Dicentra 'White Gold'!! Hellebores, epimediums, trillium and euphorbia have already come and gone, although I have not yet cut back the flowerheads on the hellebores or the euphorbs. Waiting on the oriental poppies, salvia 'Hot Lips', astrantia and hardy fuchsias. They won't be long....May is the major perennial month here!! Not bad for only a 2 year old garden :-))...See MoreHere for a bit and then gone: "Corydalis Noblis"
Comments (0)More and more I like these plants that go completely dormant ie disappear completely. I find them...intriguing. Corydalis Noblis is an example of a larger perennial that will go fully dormant. (I was hoping to wait till the flowers were larger but the stand was zapped by a heavy frost last night :( )...See MoreThe mid spring lull
Comments (26)Walking around my garden this morning reminded me that I should mention Dicentra 'Gold Heart'. Katob, I know you mentioned bleeding heart above, but I just wanted to emphasize that 'Gold Heart' is just glowing and stealing the show. it began to bloom just barely before the tiarellas, anemones, and Iberis. it would be stunning with all the blues you have. This plant is one which i am hoping to divide and increase. It really glows in my garden this time of year. Our spring is always much later than everybody elses because of our latitude and the ocean. I watch on these threads as everybody's gardens bloom while my earliest perennials are barely emerging. But Dicentra 'Gold Heart' is like turning on sunshine in my shade while most other things are waking up. It seems happiest in areas where it is getting more sun now because my trees are not leafed out. Not as happy in denser shade where things like conifers or general tree density block more early spring sun....See Moreperen.all Zone 5a Ontario Canada
