Your March blooms are wonderful..things will be blooming all over before you know it.
Beautiful spring blooms Phillip. I see several I can't grow here. It is fun seeing them. A little frustrating too.

lovely flowers Phillip. Your blog looks different. Did you change the banner? Where did you get your mulch?
Nice! Our tulips have just started blooming. A frost got us last night though which may delay things.
Spring looks great in your garden. Those hellebores are wonderful. What are they?

LOVE the epimedium! I have one, not as far along here as yours is ... they're so sturdy and reliable yet so delicate and fragile-looking.
Phillip Oliver said…
Thanks for the comments everybody!

MMD, not exactly sure. They were from a hybrid collection mix.

Rebecca, I changed the Blogger template. Not sure if I'm happy with it. The mulch came from the landfill over by the Tower.

C.C., I am loving them too. I planted more varieties last year but I haven't seen blooms yet. They are very tough and very drought tolerant which is also a big plus.

Chinese Paper Bush, that is a new one to me! To bad it is zone 7 or I know what my next purchase would be!
If you have more photos of your I would LOVE to see them!

Beautiful! Epimedium is yet another plant that's been on my to-get list (getting longer every day). It looks so dainty but I've read that it's very tough.

Love seeing the bright colors in your garden. I have blooms on my Alabama snow wreath you gave me. It is a lovely shrub and seems to like it's spot. Thanks for being the nice garden friend you are. Oh and I'm loving the Alabama Gardener magazine too!

Magazine worthy they are!

The hellebore looks similar to one I have called Red Lady. My dwarf iris are blooming. The tall bearded one I planted at ECM should be in bloom by Monday.

Beautiful as always, Phillip - love the colors, especially the sweet Epidemium blossoms.

Changing the template sounds like a very spring thing to do!

Love the tulips!
Goodness Phillip, I envy you those double hellebores. I only have one double, and she's taking a long time to get going. This is her third year in the garden. Viburnum 'Mohawk' is a beauty too. Happy Spring. I've got so much to do. How about you?~~Dee
