I wanted to go to the link you sent me to see the quilt you made. I tried the link you sent, and it "says'" I don't have access. I don't have an email address for you (and couldn't find one), so this is the only way I know to get a message to you! Please email me with another link. I'd love to see the quilt.Quilter Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12692414632379402401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-29773085108641039872014-03-25T07:36:35.961-04:002014-03-25T07:36:35.961-04:00Your blooms are an encouraging sight!

Now I know why. I will probably let the shrub/tree duke it out and see what I end up with. That is my usual method of gardening. I would like to have both shrubs in the garden anyway. This way I do. :)Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-26644756580547984872014-03-17T12:04:37.119-04:002014-03-17T12:04:37.119-04:00You said it...it's been quite a winter!

You are getting blooms coming up from the native fall-flowering rootstock! That's what you see in the fall, and then the cultivar branches are blooming in early spring.<br /><br />If you can cut off the stems coming from the rootstock and still keep the shape to preserve the Jelena stems, try that. Apparently this happens a lot : )Laurriehttp://laurries.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-89320567784535650732014-03-16T16:48:49.010-04:002014-03-16T16:48:49.010-04:00A handful of snowdrops is all ... the hellebores l...A handful of snowdrops is all ... the hellebores look like they really haven't started to grow yet.Jasonhttp://gardeninacity.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-48435847381717079322014-03-16T16:48:26.689-04:002014-03-16T16:48:26.689-04:00A handful of snowdrops is all ... the hellebores l...A handful of snowdrops is all ... the hellebores look like they really haven't started to grow yet.Jasonhttp://gardeninacity.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-87984842288761453772014-03-16T15:00:43.350-04:002014-03-16T15:00:43.350-04:00Hope springs eternal, and your beginning blooms lo...Hope springs eternal, and your beginning blooms look hopeful enough to make one believe the season will break loose this year after all.<br /><br />Hang on!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12817320435164750225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-8094898836294503532014-03-16T02:44:00.931-04:002014-03-16T02:44:00.931-04:00From the first time i saw the snowdrops and crocus...From the first time i saw the snowdrops and crocuses at the mountains of Turkey, whose emergence they celebrate, i have been waiting also for them to bloom from the blogging community. What is nice (i think) about winter is the anticipation of spring and the changes, while we here at the tropics have mostly the same year-in and year-out, so not much fanfare and anticipation.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-64378685799345609332014-03-15T22:03:12.933-04:002014-03-15T22:03:12.933-04:00Love those snowdrops.
