What can I say? No, envy didn’t inspire me. It was the location (shaded) and desire to fill in between winter and spring. So I’ll list the plants:
• Iris cristata, aka dwarf crested iris or woodland iris • Iris japonica • Common violet, but more white than violet. • Fatsia japonica • Daphne odora, very fragrant And attractive shrubs: • Prunus mume, aka Japanese Apricot, which is very fragrant • Chionanthus virginicus, aka Fringe Tree, Old Man's Beard, Grancy Graybeard • Cercis canadensis (eastern redbud) • And, believe it or not, a white redbud, Cercis canadensis f. alba 'Royal White' |
