Re: bloom 2014

 

I generally put junos by rocks just so I know where they are! I wonder if I'm actually providing them with too much moisture while they're dormant in summer by doing that.

Those are wonderful. Each more interesting and lovely than the other. Do you put rocks near, or them near each a rock, to ensure a bit more warmth through retained heat of the sun? I do that with some plants. Give them a little rock to get their roots up under, and in the warmth of which to bask.

I've been lax in posting photos this season, so I'll start back with the junos. Here are two color extremes of aucheri back in April. These were new and I'm not sure how well they'd do in a normal winter without snow cover since they begin to emerge in fall. I've killed this species in the past without even seeing any flowers.
