Re: Epimediums

I am glad you found your epimedium.  Mine are beginning to flower.I saw a
large white one I should have put closer to the path but then the small
white one really would have been lost back from the path.  The only solution
is to get more.  The pitiful cry of the Gardner "I need more plants".  The
Solomon's seal and their relatives are beginning to come up.  I put all of
them in to pots since I really do not know where they should go until the
other plants are up and growing.  Plus, it gives each plant a chance to grow
better roots before being put out in the cold world.
All the trilliums are beginning to bloom and the rue amenone , pink and
white,are beautiful.  The double bloodroot just bloomed today.  The single
bloom ones are starting to make seed pods.
All is right with the world.
