Spring Favorites

April 2, 2007

This is one of my favorite Anemone's 'Blue Poppy' - its just about as blue as you can get in the garden. I'm not a big fan of ornamental cabbage, but Kale on the other hand is beautiful. 'Red Peacock' Kale is my favorite, especially if you'll let it go to flower in the spring. Planted an interesting new variety of Muscari for this spring called 'Golden Fragrance'. Unlike most muscari, this variety is a chartreuse color, quite large and nicely fragrant. We'll have to test out its longevity though. Dutch Iris 'Imperator' is a must have for me. Not only is it an easy to grow perennial here, but is really the top garden showstopper in spring.
