Wasn't today lovely? I got some serious planting in, despite desperately wanting to nap ;0) Would you like some Mexican Feather Grass for in front of the tree? I have oodles of "babies" that I must rid myself of. It has great golden color and stands about 2-3 feet tall. The catch being it makes lots of babies, but I've only noticed this after a few years. Let me know and I'll put some aside for you.Gardenesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11447339122924259391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-91837021287952095672010-03-03T15:40:44.496-08:002010-03-03T15:40:44.496-08:00Great color and it looks like that front garden is...Great color and it looks like that front garden is in great shape ready for the year.L.

I don't think my bleeding hearts will be that big until the first of May. I have had them seed around and grow too. Often in my gravel pathway. I might have a crocus in the next two weeks tho. Yay. Glad you planted some ~ I love having them but we definitely need the color (since there isn't much else blooming when they start). Your garden is alive with blooms. :-)Kathleenhttp://kaseyskorner.typepad.com/kaseys_kornernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-39788268571138443432010-03-03T10:49:09.701-08:002010-03-03T10:49:09.701-08:00I love the camellias.

It's just amazing when I look at my posts this time last year I was waiting for anything to show. Just so early but I'm loving it. My Azalea is now blooming and last year I posted that it opened around April 13 - is that amazing or what? And your Peony Poppy is showing here along with Dianas and maybe mine that I planted in jugs. Hooray!!!

I'd give anything to have my house a bright colour lol. Apparently we have rules in my subdivision. We don't have to pay any fees or anything, but there are some clauses that you have to keep with the look of the neighbourhood. The neighbour across the street got sued by another neighbour for having a pretty white fence put in the front yard.

I'm sure if I had planned it that way it would've never happened so easily :)<br /><br />Darla - I would like the grasses to be a clumping type that stayed around 1 foot tall. I just don't want it is to take over too much.<br /><br />Janet - The Bleeding Hearts I have are just regular Dicentra spectabilis. One of the plants was here when I moved in and that's the one that has sent new plants up from the broken roots.<br /><br />Di - I do have a few Hostas there, but would love to add a few different types as well. I love the ones with the big blue-green leaves.<br /><br />Shellagh - Thanks! If you are meaning the flower in the sideshow, it's a rose 'Abraham Darby', I love it!Catherine@AGardenerinProgresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001060769253273283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-24734441770757007952010-03-02T14:07:51.489-08:002010-03-02T14:07:51.489-08:00Hi Catherine, It certainly looks wonderful over yo...Hi Catherine, It certainly looks wonderful over your way!
