HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!

Just wanted to wish everyone that follows my blog and who occassionaly takes a peek a very Happy Easter Sunday.  Spring is reborn!

Here are pictures of my Lenten Roses that have been blooming for about 2 months now.  The smaller one is a hybrid that only had three leaf stems and hardly any blooms last year.  This year she has grown so much.  The before and after pic are here.

Lenten Roses, or Heliobores start blooming around Christmas, underneath the snow cover.  As Spring approaches, they have an amazing array of flowers.  I own an Apple Blossom variety as depicted by the larger one in the pictures.  It is slightly greenish in color.  The other is a hybrid.  Cannot remember it's name but it is almost black in color with dark leaves.  They have a mounding effect and should not be divided.  Hope you enjoy the pics.
