Bloom Day! March 15, 2008

Ok, so it's technically not the 15th anymore... But this is still in the spirit of Garden Blogger's Bloom Day, started over at May Dreams Gardens.

Not much in bloom, but I did find a few snowdrops finally out of the ground! This is the 'Flore Pleno' cultivar.

This is a very tiny flower - only about a finger width. This shot has the blossom upturned for a view of the interior. I was very pleased to see them come up because a lot is made of how successful transplantation is when snowdrops are "in the green." These were from dry bulbs (Brent and Becky's, I think) and they all came up!
I bought pansies for the front planters at May's Greenhouse.
And a Bloom Day miscreant: this hellebore should be blooming! But it definitely isn't, and maybe is on the way out... Only time will tell.

I love finding new blogs through bloom day, especially if they are gardeners in Indiana like me. (Though I don't consider my self 'stuck' here since I was born in Indiana).

Love the snowdrops, and wish I had planted some in my garden.
