Lovely pics Louise, I also have a Pulsatilla which I've dug up to take with me.
Your Azalea is far adavanced to mine, I certainly hope it has some flower buds
last year it was a mass of flowers. Have you fed yours ??

Wonderful pics as usual Louise. You've certainly got a good selection of spring plants in your garden, it's so lovely to see colourful blogs now that Spring is really here! :o))))

lovely flowers and that reminds me I havnet seen my Pulsatilla this year.

What a lot of nice comments, thanks everyone :-)))

Heron, Daffs aren't really a favourite of mine, so there aren't any here :-/

Stripes, no, i've not fed the Azalea and it's only burst its buds in the last 2 days whilst we've had very warm sun - that's what's done it !

Pansy, the A. de Caen are a very firm favourite of mine :-)

Seaburn, my Pulsatillas are behaving very oddly this year .... on one plant i've got the one with the huge droopy head and on another there seems to be 3 flowers all different shades, my favourites are the dark red ones and the dark purple ones (pictured).

Thanks everyone, it's lovely to see colour springing up everywhere now - so welcome after our long, cold winter !!!

10 Apr, 2010

 

Emmaj I too like Blanda Blue as blue is my favourite colour. Maybe it's something to do with when I was a small child but I like all 'Daisy like' flowers.

10 Apr, 2010

Just catching up on here, it's all looking beautiful Louise, must get some pulsatilla, I've always loved it and never had one, no idea why. Your Sophora looks great, I don't suppose they'd be hardy here:-)

I think you'd need a warm, sheltered position, Ba.
