I was just eying some cinnamon ferns last week! I really want some for my yard.

My first plant shipment arrived Friday from your home state (Forest Farm) - it was a flowering dogwood. I have a big shipment of native groundcover type plants that should be coming soon.

We have daffodils, bloodroot, and dutchman's breeches among other things in bloom right now...so weeks behind you. I'm surprised your wild ginger isn't spreading. Ours slowly spreads in a lovely non-taking over way. It's one of the plants that survived 10 years of complete neglect from the second owners and in that time filled out nicely. That's a nice big order of plants! Looks like some great additions to your gardens.Robin @ 3 Acres & 3,000 sfhttp://threeacres.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-6056524937003491202012-03-29T19:32:40.038-07:002012-03-29T19:32:40.038-07:00Here's hoping you have better luck with your c...Here's hoping you have better luck with your climbing hydrangea than I have over the years, Heather.

I put in Agastache 'Blue Blazes' and 'Ava,' Ladybird poppies, that Angelica Stricta that Annie showed at the HPSO meeting, Knautia macedonia, Silene asterias, an eryngium, penstemon 'Coconino County,' and then a bunch of Autumn fire and random salvias. Now I'm thinking I should have ordered that 'Rozanne' geranium to sprinkle here and there.<br /><br />I think non-gardeners must think we're insane.

I'm so impatient with things in spring...especially since so many things seems lightly "off". Some things are months ahead of schedule...while a few others are over a month late. Of course, it just means that my neighbors get to watch me crouched down in the front yard every day until I see signs of life...they are SO lucky ;-)Scott Webernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-57306132806697787762012-03-29T09:42:15.030-07:002012-03-29T09:42:15.030-07:00You're so right.I keep thinking things should ...You're so right.I keep thinking things should be further along than they are, only to check my photos and realize that I have to wait until May . . . or July . . . or September!

I think they'll satisfy my impatience nicely. :)Heatherhttp://www.justagirlwithahammer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-1843623715651924452012-03-29T09:21:18.700-07:002012-03-29T09:21:18.700-07:00They should call this season Patience, not Spring....They should call this season Patience, not Spring. It's all about waiting, waiting for things to fill in or grow or come back from the dead. You have so much getting ready to leap out or be planted!
