re: early spring flowers


Here are a few flowers for early spring that weren't already mentioned:  the
yellow adonis, first nonbulb to bloom in my yard; aubrieta, a wonderful
creeper with charming pink to purple blooms for well-drained soil (BWT, the
pink arabis is also wonderful); thlaspi, a cress-family plant with very
early short white blooms; alyssum, many species with gorgeous yellow blooms
at the same time as creeping phlox; lathyrus verna, a nonclimbing early
sweet pea relative;  and try some of the new fringed pulsatillas.
