| Wood anemone, Anemone quinquefolia |
After lamenting the lack of flowers around the woodland at Havenwood just a few weeks ago, we have been over run by woodland treasures in the past two weeks. These beauties are a testament that some plants were just made to endure, even in the midst of decades of neglect.
So... Welcome to a surprise Garden Blogger's Bloom Day at Havenwood Gardens! May it be the first of many.

| Azure bluet (Houstonia caerulea) prefers acid soil in the woodland... so this is a great place to start planting some azaleas. :) |

How fantastic to have all these beautiful flowers pop up in your woodland! I have Claytonia sibirica in my woodland, I think it is a bit more pink, such a lovely little plant.I can imagine how you felt when they first appeared, you were meant to live there!
ReplyDeleteGreat to find so many treasures Julie, just think what else might appear during the year.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you have bluets! They are my favorite wildflower at my house. I don't mow the mossy area they grow in, and they have really started to spread and fill in. It's like a floating carpet in the spring. :)
ReplyDeleteWow Julie so many lovely wildflowers growing ...you are blessed with these jewels.
