Daffodils

Everywhere I turn these days I am seeing such gorgeous Daffodils.  I don’t know why I haven’t considered them before for the garden.  This fall I want to order a bunch of bulbs for a nice showing of Daffodils next spring.  I see a lot of the yellow ones but www.michiganbulbs.com  has this pretty pink variety called Pink Charm.

I like the yellow too - maybe I’ll plant some yellow along the side of the house and then plant the pink ones in the back yard.  They are such a breath of fresh air in an otherwise dreary early spring garden.

On the plus side, my Hostas are popping up - they almost look like little asparagus spears poking their head out - I never really closely looked a them before now.  It looks like my purple Alliums are coming up too, there are little green chive- like shoots coming up.  The daylillies and the Autumn Joy Sedum are poking their heads out too.

My Hydrangeas are still looking sad - just a brown twig at the four spots where I planted them but the twigs,  under the brown -  way down by the soil is green.  Hopefully they are still alive and will grow.

I also have some things popping up that I am not sure what they are but they do not look like weeds.  The only things I planted in that area were the Alliums, Purple Coneflower and Coreopsis.   The leaves popping up don’t look like any of those plants.  I guess I’ll just have to wait and see what pops up!
