Mid March Fun in the garden!

 We were blessed with 2 days in the 70s this week here on Long Island and my garden was LOVING it. Here are some photos.

My pansies re-seeded themselves on the lawn. This happened one other time when I lived in Florida so it was a fun reminder of the time I had down there! 



Happy Cordylines and trachycarpus!



All the windmill palms sailed through the winter.

Trachycarpus in containers


Sabal Uresana had no issues surviving the winter with a trash can and a few lights on cold nights


You can see the special blue tinge that makes this sabal such a lovely one. Unfortunately it's frustratingly slow!


Windmill Palm in the front yard


Yucca "Silver Anniversary" and Yucca Gloriosa


Rosemary survived the winter in a container and even had a few blooms. Very cool!


The Needle plam got beat up by the snow and wind, but was unfazed by cold and unprotected.

Sabal minor was buried in an icy pile of snow. Every frond was crushed but all things considered it looks great!


Southern Star Jasmine looking FLAWLESS! This was the second winter for it.


The oleander has had better days. And this is with protection. Some varieties are more cold tolerant than others, but this one is definitely the latter.


My smallest Windmill Palm. Also looking great


Happy Hellebores


Thanks for looking!
