It's March! What's blooming in YOUR yard?

#1 Postby breeze » Mon Mar 01, 2004 8:34 pm

Just curious - and, hey, if you have one of those
"newfangled" digital cameras, please, SHOW us what's
blooming!

My hyacinths and crocus are blooming (is that croci - plural?),
and, the daffodils are up, but, not showing blooms, yet.

The Bradford Pear (that broke off limbs in a storm, last year),
and, other trees are showing buds.

What's up in your neck of the woods?

The tulips are coming up... as well as the Easter Lillies. They are almost ready to bloom, which is a little earlier than usual. The dogwoods and bradford pear trees haven't really taken off yet.

My crocus, daffodils and tulips are poking their heads out. They're not quite sure what to do, but the crocus should be blooming by now, especially with the warm weather we're having.

Azaleas, Hybrid Tea Roses (which I had to prune off-boohoo), Hibiscus, water lillies (still, but very small), impatiens. Irises aren't yet but getting pretty tall as well as amaryllis. Grandiflora, floribunda and climbing roses aren't even close so didn't cry too hard when I pruned them. Will start feeding the water lillies next month so when they cover the pond will post a pic. They are gorgeous!

Oh and the TERMITES-THEY'RE REALLY BLOOMING HERE! :grr:

Does it count if you just bought the plants from the nursery and planted them?

LOL, weeds are going to be the going thing,
now! Ya'll need to take some lessons from
Cajunmama - NO weeds! ;)

Kathy, my crepe myrtles are pruned, too,
but, one of them is susceptible to the white
powder fungus, every year - it never blooms!

Nothing blooming or even looking alive at this point. But this time next month, plants will be growing/blooming.
