Re: the quiet gardeners/ romneya coulteri

Hello Chantal,
    We have had early warm springs for the past 3 years and the plants adapted....
normally I have a bit left in bloom up through the middle of December, but not
this year. Even my Aconitum I count on for color is in seed pods now. Same with
Cyclamen, Gentian saponaria. Sedums are all brown and tan seed heads at this
point.
    A few sees remain to be collected, but for the most part, I am inside writing
about gardening... there will be s few more warms days to get back out and play a
bit before winter finally closes in...I hope.
    Sorry, not familiar with your romneya.. so no comments there.
