I'm hoping they will survive, but even since I took the pics I posted on my blog the paddle plant is looking a little dreary... can't figure out why since I didn't water it Ellie Mae's Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13889959606127833480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-33027614675392059522010-03-11T11:11:39.683-06:002010-03-11T11:11:39.683-06:00It's a great aha moment when you finally ident...It's a great aha moment when you finally identify a mystery plant, isn't it?

Funny thing is, I had purchased it myself, but when I planted it did not know anything about it and then forgot about it entirely. It was literally YEARS before it developed blooms and I became intrigued by it...only learning about it through our blogging over the last year! Yours is a pretty bloom, and large!

These are close to the lawn so if they spread I'll leave them there. I have daffodils in the lawn and while I love it in bloom I can't mow it until late May. Crocuses would also work in the lawn. I think both crocuses and snowdrops would fade early enough.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-76421922365407150402010-03-11T04:36:04.935-06:002010-03-11T04:36:04.935-06:00What a beautiful little hellebore!

But you have given me hope, Tina--I planted some snowdrops last fall for the first time, too, because, like you, I fell in love with all the ones I saw on other blogs. I expected them to be blooming by now, but I haven't seen a sign. If yours are just now blooming, that gives me hope that mine will appear eventually.

It's a false spring, there are more freezes possible, but I'll take it and send it your way.Jean Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09000315400392984647noreply@blogger.com
