Bloom/weather
Everyone seems to have some sort of bloom in spite of their weather.
Yesterday was the first sunny day - with a strong very cool wind, after many days of
heavy rains. I walked around the garden and not a single stalk,bud -
nothing -- and I have a number of SDBs - -- was popping up. This is the first year
that my weeping cherry blossoms have come and gone without my being able to
appreciate its loveliness but for a hasty glimpse from the sheltered back
door. My Yoshino cherry's pale pink blossoms have turned white without my seeing
them, and they are beginning to fall! Usually I am out in the garden,
enjoying that beautiful tree!. It is enormous and too beautiful to have missed --
but that rain had my sump-pumps working away! The forsythia in my neighbor's
yard is in bloom - but I am afraid that my Loripetulum (sp? - but at least
I'm not calling it Laura Petalum, Waltah!) has been too badly winter-burned --
and they are so beautiful -- and difficult to find here. I like it better
than azaleas. Enuf of my sad story (added to the fact the Drs. have said I
can't fly, so no National)) So back to hunting for the material for those dumb
taxes! Rosalie nr Baltimore, Md., USA Is it zone 7?! ryfigge@aol.com
