SO, sorry to all of you who don't like it.<br /><br />Barbara: Hi there. I need all the help I can get anymore to remember things. That saying"Of all the things I miss the most I miss my mind"LOL!<br /><br />RG: yes that is a picture of just the foliage of the pulmonaria in summer.The new leaves are just starting. My Cyclamen looks terrible. Needs a boost I think.<br /><br />Kiki: Happy spring to you too.I was beginning to wonder if it would ever get here. LOL!<br /><br />Rose: Have fun on your visit with daughter. We have about the same weather so your will be growing a lot now too.<br /><br />Carol: I am so glad to see all of the growth. Happy spring to you too.<br /><br />Joy: I never had any mildew on it last summer. The flowers are a purple color I believe. I just put it out last spring so this is the first flowers I have had on it. It sure is starting out before the leaves are grown.<br /><br />Darla: Isn't it nice. I am thrilled.<br /><br />Autumn: I checked the profile and it works for me so I do not know what the problem is. Maybe it is just one of those days.<br /><br />pogonip: It is amazing at the difference.

Happy Spring to you.<br /><br />Robin: oh girl my daffodils have opened over night it seems. Your stokes are growing?? Okay what did you do? LOL! But will they ever bloom, now that is the question. ;-)<br /><br />Bernie: I love looking at all the gardens from around the world. It is fascinating. Would you trade some kangaroos for some deers? LOL!<br /><br />Jim: Thanks and happy spring to you and Pat. I bet your garden is growing now by leaps and bounds too.<br /><br />Happy@Home: Now I just have to be patient until something starts blooming.LOL! My daffodils did open during the night so it is a start.<br /><br />Jeri: Can't you just hear that sigh of relief that winter may be done. LOL!<br /><br />Catherine: This is the first time it has bloomed since it was planted late last spring so I am just learning about it. I still like yours though with the spotted leaves and purple and pink flowers. Hey, I have something blooming!

I like looking at little sprouts and knowing my friends are excited about what is coming up and I'm excited for them. I show mine and hope it doesn't bore everyone too.<br />I just love the foliage on the Hardy Cyclamen. My neighbor gave me some last year and it is so pretty. Are those light green leaves with dark trim around them and are they from your Pulmonaria? The first two pictures look like the leaves are spotted like mine but the 3rd picture looks different - it's really gorgeous is why I'm asking. I may have to get that one.<br />You gardens look great - this is such a wonderful time of year!!!RainGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14071017261791897927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-60380172584532148852010-03-21T12:00:09.204-04:002010-03-21T12:00:09.204-04:00So exciting to see new growth everhwhere!
