New Bulbs aren't Sprouting Yet
Comments (2)Sometimes if the bulbs were beaten up a bit in storage or transit they take longer to sprout. I've noticed this mostly with the sad walmart bulbs that have been sitting slowly drying out on the shelf. They bloom but later. I assume they need the rest and rehab and eventually catch up....See MoreIf Daffs aren't up yet can I safely assume they won't?
Comments (9)The Daffs my neighbor and I planted in the raised bed in Fall are only up about 3-4 inches. The bed was covered in snow a couple of weeks ago and our nighttime temps are still in the 30's. We're hoping we will still get some blooms. Similar situation as Duluth's...our perennials are just starting to poke through....See MoreMy jap maples aren't producing leaves yet.
Comments (4)I'm having the same problem with a small 'Garnet' Planted last August. Small buds look viable, new growth twigs have good color (not death dried like a few) and are green when scraped. We had a couple weeks of 70's then it got cold again and we had some scattered frost, I'm not sure if the frost hit that part of my yard or not. There was one small sucker that leafed out at the base of the tree during those warm days. I guess we just have to wait and see...I wonder how long to wait????...See Morewhy aren't my plants dead yet?
Comments (8)In my experience die-back or die-off for winter is a very long process. There is no such thing as having a big frost and then cleaning up the yard for winter. I go out over weekend after weekend and take out whatever has died back. The first to go would be the more temperature sensitive annuals. Then slowly as it get colder various perennials and hardier annuals fade out. Some perennials take a long time to lose their top growth. I got a thin layer of snow Sat. night and figured it finished off most of the annuals, but was surprised to see how good they still looked on Sun. However, as I hurried out the door this morning, the very cold temperatures of last night appear to have done in the annuals that I could see. Even for the annuals, I think it is a complex story of how cold and for how long, and even more so for the perennials....See Moresherrygirl zone5 N il
