If this weather keeps up, it's going to be time to divide stuff soon, I wish we could know for sure we were done with the cold, it sure seems that way. I'm thinking of moving the plants in my back room out to the yard again. I just can't imagine another cold snap at this point.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04563840922463701366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-66451379231460198372010-01-28T17:06:20.060-08:002010-01-28T17:06:20.060-08:00I can hardly wait.

I am ...Hey there Gardeness, thanks for stopping by! I am so glad I could introduce you to the Tetrapanax...you NEED one!<br /><br />MTJulie, good luck! Here's sending you dry skies (which surprisingly we actually have here in Portland right now!)<br /><br />How it grows, me too. Only 51 days!!! (yikes)<br /><br />Thank you Patrick for the i.d., which has been confirmed by several others. I hope this is the year that we have no surprise February frosts. I just don't think I could deal with that.<br /><br />Anon S, I think the consensus is that it's a Spirea.<br /><br />Grace, I will pray for no Dawn of the Dead scenes in your backyard! And thanks for the i.d., mystery solved!<br /><br />Greensparrow, that's exactly how I was feeling in December when we were having record setting cold. It hurt to look at pretty garden pictures when all of my plants were suffering! I'm sorry....your spring will come and it will be amazing! I've never heard of exochorda so I looked it up. Nope, I think that you had it right with the Spirea guess.<br /><br />D&N, ya once was enough huh? Yea for your Euphorbia! Just think...soon your banana will be pushing out a new leaf!<br /><br />Jane, no! It's not happening. Whose spreading these weather lies anyway?

Our one hellebore is actually blooming already, but the flowers are deep inside the plant where they're masked by the thick leaves...strange.<br /><br />But what's this I hear about a mini deep freeze within a week?

I'm boycotting all blogs in warmer climates than mine from now until spring comes to my part of the world -- ie, a couple months from now.<br /><br />But: I can't resist mystery plants! Not abeliophyllum distichum, for sure -- it has 4 petals, and that flower has 5. Could be spirea. Maybe exochorda?Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14433418903218452909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-51483279374509181232010-01-27T22:44:05.530-08:002010-01-27T22:44:05.530-08:00Hi Loree~~ I'm thinking you've got a Brida...Hi Loree~~ I'm thinking you've got a Bridal Veil Spiraea on your hands. <br /><br />Just today I noticed a clump of green working its way from the depths of a too-thick mulch. As I stooped to help it out, there were actually daffodil BUDS. Granted its an early variety, but still. I'm hoping for continued temps. If it gets cold again, yikes. It will look like dawn of the dead in my backyard with all the sheets draped over vulnerable plants.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-6424968651919859042010-01-27T20:11:24.907-08:002010-01-27T20:11:24.907-08:00Ahhh...spring.
