Your plants are looking good and I am sure they will bloom beautifully in the coming months.Those birds at the feeder, they are really enjoying the food.

I didn't even think of that :)<BR/><BR/>Joy- I can't wait to see the dicentras growing- what a nice addition to your already beautiful beds!<BR/><BR/>Daphne- Me too. I spend a lot more time these days on my crop bed and the greenhouse than anything. I'm going to try to split my time this year- my bed have been neglected a couple years in a row and I hadn't even done much to them yet! Like I've said, if you drove by my house, you wouldn't know a gardener lives here!<BR/><BR/>Catherine- I learn so much from watching what you're growing in your beds! I love your Hellebore!<BR/><BR/>Tatyana- Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. Yep, spring is here...finally! I think grouping things is the way to go in beds, but again, what do I know? I hope it will look good! Thanks for stopping by!<BR/><BR/>Gardeness- Lots of rain! I wish it would calm down a bit. The wind has been bad too. We'll see how my beds do this year, I have a few things for them- I'm just not that great at it! Design I mean :). I'm glad to help on the mystery plant!<BR/><BR/>Megan- If I decide to dig them up and give them away, I'll keep you in mind- good thing you live here :) Happy April!<BR/><BR/>Patsi- Thanks for stopping by, nice to meet you. No one was interested in that suet for weeks, even the squirrel. Now the Bushtits have come to eat it up!Tessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12357951823874888877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683942169651110182.post-8476387803472340172009-04-01T15:18:00.000-07:002009-04-01T15:18:00.000-07:00You're one busy gardener!!You reminded me...hope m...You're one busy gardener!!<BR/>You reminded me...hope my coreopsis come back this year.<BR/>Neat looking feeder.

And often they bring a single chickadee friend with them, who comes and gets one seed and flies away. At least that's how they do it in my yard, where I put sunflower seeds next to the suet.<BR/>If that filipendula needs a good new home that would love it and take care of it... ;)Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04563840922463701366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683942169651110182.post-71245819947978075902009-03-31T20:21:00.000-07:002009-03-31T20:21:00.000-07:00You have tons of things well on their way in your ...You have tons of things well on their way in your garden. What are you talking about "not much?" And now I know it's definitely anemone I've got growing in the back garden. Thanks for the help. The bushtits are quite cute. I spotted them awhile back in our yard but haven't seen them since. Did you have more sun today? We had some, but quite a bit of rain.Gardenesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11447339122924259391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683942169651110182.post-54974482016265821862009-03-31T17:12:00.000-07:002009-03-31T17:12:00.000-07:00Hi Tessa!

I'm in Canada skiing and I understand why all the blotanists from Canada are so tired of winter! It's still very wintery here!<BR/>My columbine spreads like crazy. I tried to dig it out, but it's back! Your idea of grouping it is very good. It should create a great display!Tatyana@MySecretGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15230255354868127650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683942169651110182.post-61056991869989633632009-03-31T15:53:00.000-07:002009-03-31T15:53:00.000-07:00Tessa it looks great there!

I think they are the cutest!<BR/>Thanks for the compliments, but I must say I feel the same way about your garden when you show all the great happenings in your greenhouse!Catherine@AGardenerinProgresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001060769253273283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683942169651110182.post-76675361585281891542009-03-31T15:14:00.000-07:002009-03-31T15:14:00.000-07:00I love the Faerie Garden too.

I spent my day in the perennial border cleaning up (I probably won't get to writing about it until tomorrow), but really I don't pay much attention to it. I spend too much of my time in the veggie garden. <BR/><BR/>Your garden is so far ahead of mine. I have the same geranium that you do. I can barely see the shoots starting to come up. My coreopsis is just a hint of green at the bottom. My daylilies are just a couple of inches tall. They are slowly getting there. Yours already look nice.Daphnehttp://daphnesdandelions.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683942169651110182.post-85722396037155203262009-03-31T15:03:00.000-07:002009-03-31T15:03:00.000-07:00Hey Tessa !Thanks for the mention girl !

You have a lot going on even now with all the blooms bursting forth girl .. and the seedlings .. not for the faint of heart like me : )<BR/>I bought new pruners (probably will buy another pair again) .. and the grab bags got me with 4 fern leaf dicentras .. King of Hearts and Aurora, you can never have too many of these .. right ?

I do ...Hi Tessa, thanks so much for the link love! I do appreciate that and your sweet comments. You have plenty going on in your garden I think. The anemones are a favorite of mine, and all the other things you show. You are ahead of me with the bleeding hearts, those are late this year, even though some things are early. Don't you adore the columbines? I love that they self seed too, in case the older ones die off, they can be short lived. The seeds need light to germinate, so if you mulch the area, you might not get the baby columbines.<BR/>FrancesFranceshttp://fairegarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
