Spring, how I love you, let me count the ways…
And I wish you to continue on and on. Since that is not possible in real life, lets at least continue the spring tour at Kilbourne Grove.
Another new to me spring bulb is Corydalis solida. I purchased some of these bulbs trying to increase my viewing pleasure during the only times of the year I am in Canada. And I want a show, this one certainly provided one.
Both of these varieties came from GardenImport in Toronto,
George Baker, a lovely soft red,
and Beth Evans, a gorgeous pink.
I also purchased a couple of years earlier a soft unnamed lilac corydalis. This one, although smaller has proved it likes it here, seeding over by my magnolia.

This is the second year that my Pieris japonica ‘Mountain Fire’ has flowered.
Pieris 2012
Last year it was in March due to the very early spring and I totally missed it. However I got to enjoy it this year, looking forward to it increasing in size.
And my muscari looked better then ever, just ignore the end where I still have to transplant some, still loving the ribbon effect.
Now you can see the balcony/balconies at the back of the Deliverance house, no stairs down to ground level yet, but I am sure they are coming. Just praying for my hedge to grow.
I am a floral designer living in a tiny condo in downtown Toronto, Canada's largest city. But on the weekend, I am a gardener/frustrated architect trying to keep up with a 3/4 acre garden in Owen Sound, Ontario, a warm (to Canadians, Zone 5b, and a cold (to Americans, Zone 4b) garden.
