Spring beauties...

Alas, they are not native plants but good old-fashioned, cultivated garden blooms. Sure are pretty, though, so I can understand the lure. The first two are hold-outs in the garden at one of my work places, an old Cape May home. Although I didn't put it in, I am responsible for the totally out-of-control state of forsythia in my yard; I never seem to get around to pruning it (although the increasing shade as the trees mature is taking care of some it for me)...



Scilla siberica, Siberian Squill.
