March flowers

Hi and welcome to March in my garden! Summer might be winding down but the garden is as flower filled as ever, and the lowering light makes blooms and petals even more beautiful. There are seed heads and berries forming and it's fun to look each day and spot new changes.

Clockwise from top left: an unknown climbing rose grown from a cutting, autumnal tints on a hydrangea, viburnum berries (these plants have always been in one of my side gardens but I never noticed berries on them before. They are so vibrant - wow!), white rose grown from a cutting, a patchwork looking cosmos, pink penstemon, lupin and lavatera, water drops sparkling on a hydrangea, burgundy scabiosa, autumn cyclamen, apple blossom geranium, scabiosa seed head. Middle: lupins and gaura backlit by the evening sun.

What is blooming in your garden this month? Is it spring or autumn? I'm linking this post to Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day.

  3. Your end-of-summer blooms are stunning, Ruth. Love the roses. I've linked to them on my blog today, having nothing to show yet in my Pennsylvania garden. P. x

    1. Thanks Hari, haha she isn't too bad... geraniums aren't generally too fussy! But I'll be sure to bring her inside over winter so I don't lose her to the cold!

  5. Ruth, what a nice time in your garden! I love this pink penstemon, every year I try to grow it but it does not survive the winter.
    March is beautiful in all places of our Planet.

    1. Thanks Nadezda! It's a shame when plants don't survive the winter. I hope your garden is starting to wake up now with lots of plants that did survive!
