I thought weekends were for relaxing? Got quite a bit done-was just a perfect weekend weather wise so we got the veggie garden fence stained, some flowers and plants put in the ground, and the garage cleaned-which isn't garden work but was on the list. Actually, it was on the list to do last Fall...
So, the trilliums are finally coming up and there is propagation; Here are the "old" ones"
The other plant with a "baby" on it's right:
And a new one!
Trilliums spread slowly. And we didn't buy these. I "stole" one from a rest stop off of I-96 years ago and they've become three plants now. It's illegal to pick trilliums in Michigan so I've just posted a confession plus shown the evidence.
Next is a pic of buds on the wisteria. Last year the buds came out in March when it was so warm then were all killed when the normal Winter temps came back. Looks like that won't happen this year and there are a lot of buds.
Here are some of the flowers on the Cleveland pears. We have had problems with them due to the clay soil. After a few years of trying to keep them healthy we have got 'em going in a positive direction. Will post a flower garden pic soon but here's a close up of the flowers:
