My salvia 'Black and Blue' is still going strong, though the weather isn't always kind to the blooms.
My Mahonia x media 'Arthur Menzies' is gorgeous right now, though it's being overshadowed by an increasingly gnarly looking castor bean plant. I'm waiting for the castor bean to turn to mush so I can get that humongous stalk out of the ground.
Salvia pulchella x involucrata looks like it might finally bloom.
My Knautia macedonica is still pushing out blooms.
Fatsia japonica!
In slightly troubling news, my hellebores are already blooming, which didn't happen until February last year.
My Allium schubertii are poking out of the ground. A lot.
Am I worrying over nothing? Am I going to lose these alliums once the really cold weather gets here? Will Luke and Lorelei ever figure out that they're in love with each other? So many questions.
Please visit our host Carol at May Dreams Gardens for a look at what's blooming in everyone else's gardens.
