I'm getting excited for things to really start firing up next month. Thanks, as always, to our hostess Carol at May Dreams Gardens.

Garden bloggers' bloom day March 2014

Better late than never edition.

When we hit single digit temperatures in December my Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata' was badly burned and lost almost every single leaf. It produced buds where the leaves dropped off. I am a HUGE fan of this. More blooms? Go ahead and lose your leaves every winter, girl.

My Daphne odora 'Mae Jima' bloomed for the first time, too!

Arctostaphylos bakeri 'Louis Edmonds'

Pieris japonica

The hellebores are still going.

Euphorbia 'Blackbird'

Euphobia myrsinites

After this we really get rolling. April is one my very favorite months in the garden! Happy bloom day, a little bit late! Thanks for hosting, Carol!
