Happy Easter Blooms

I wrote a post about anticipation on my Branches blog.  In it, I put some before and after photos of the kitchen.  I didn't do a post of them together here.  Also, the after photos were taken after some pictures were added to the walls, and haven't been posted here.  If you are interested in seeing those, click here.

My goodness, I have been having difficulties posting.  This evening, the photo button didn't show up in Safari, so I came to Firefox to post.  Now, here, I can't get the cursor to go between the photos.  I'll just list them here.

Scilla Siberica, 5 photos of hellebores from the front of the house, almost blooming bergenia, hyacinth, pasque flower, and 2 photos of hellebore, 'Silver Lace' are here. 


Oh, the last photo shows the grape hyacinths that I had to dig out and replant due to the street being resurfaced.  The blooms just came up enough to show their blue today. 

Have a great day tomorrow, and I hope you are able to be outside some of the day.

  2. Happy Easter, Sue. I've been on a blogging break and need to do some catching up with you.

    Hellebores will be planted in my yard this year because I seem to be the only gardener in the world without them. Hope mine will look as pretty as yours.

    I'm up early because we have 13 guests arriving at 11:00 and I have 72 eggs to hide outside for the hunt.

  8. I was shocked to see my pasque flowers blooming yesterday. Isn't it way early? I'm not fit enough, this early, to be moving shrubs like I did yesterday. I need a pre spring gardening workout regimen.

  16. Happy Easter Sue. Those Hyacinth are wonderful, aren't they? I planted some more last fall but they have yet to pop up and begin blooming for me. I guess I should have saved some to force inside for Easter but I've had too much other stuff going on.

  17. Hi Sue~~ Yes, those little [big] posting annoyances... I swear they've given me several gray hairs!

    I remember earlier photos of your tiny emerging hellebores and now, here they are in all their splendor! The grape hyacinth foliage looks like long, fingers reaching up from some underground netherworld. Okay, I admit I'm weird.
