When we bought the house, the dry shady areas in the back were sparse with only a bit of periwinkle growing. All this was made worse by the debris from the roofers, equipment, and heavy traffic in those areas. After the work was done, I began planting bare-root plants (all I could afford). Fast forward nearly a decade, and the back shade gardens have taken on new life. The back of the house is quite different from the sunny front. The lush foliage weaves a tapestry of textures and shades which is very serene. Delicate ferns, bold hostas, whimsical pulmonaria, and hard-working lily of the valley, offer a diverse range of leaf shapes and patterns, creating a visual symphony. If you only have a shady area, don't despair. There are many glorious plants that work in these conditions. I find that hostas thrive in even dry shade, so don't believe the hype that they need a lot of moisture. They don't. Mine are happy in the worst dry compacted clay imaginable. Lily of the valley spreads quite well, so do ferns, epimediums, astilbe, and pulmonaria. Astilbe and heuchera will need a bit more moisture.

More Beautiful Tulips in the Sun
Tumblr media
So glad I got these in the ground this fall, they are looking great.
Tumblr media
Can't wait until the whole row of orange blooms, though they look like they don't plan to bloom together.
Tumblr media
So lovely.

Things to come.

Pretty blooms while we wait for the coneflowers. The ones I ordered this winter came yesterday.
Tumblr media
The bonus tulips that got me started. Also the mammoth hosta is coming back.

Join me human:

As I watch the sun set:

We did some planting & transplanting this week:

Including some store-bought ginger that we're propagating. If all goes according to plan, we should have 5 to 6 ginger plants:

First bee butt of 2024:

My queen is drying dandelion leaves. You're supposed to be able to make a concoction with them that is beneficial in the garden. We'll see. If the results are noticeably beneficial, I'll post a follow up later in the year:
Tumblr media
I can't believe the size of the leaves of this cilantro. You can't buy this in the grocery store:
Tumblr media
This is the second day after planting these sweet potato slips & they are already perked up & happy:

Our 3 year old Red Russian Kale after harvesting this week:
Tumblr media
We went to a local hardware store to see about getting some repairs done to our mini tiller. Turns out the repair department is closed on Sundays so this happened instead:
Tumblr media
For Saint Patrick's Day, it was a nice warm Spring day but the temperature starting dropping as we're expecting an overnight low in the mid-30s Fahrenheit. Perfect fire pit weather:

Inspired by @geopsych to post some PA flower photos, which were spotted in a local park in April and May a few years back.
The last photo was taken inside a garden center in a nearby county. Just wanted to remind myself, and all you fine folks, that wandering around your local garden center will do WONDERS for your mental health, especially when the weather is grey and drab and cold.

I'm loving this warm weather! Its so breezy and relaxing, and my wind chimes are playing soft notes. My hostas are charging up out of the earth too! I'm so happy they come back every year, as will as my orange lilies and hydrangeas!
