You may wonder, “What was blooming the first half of February?” Not much in my garden. (I need to work on that.) There were a few, the witch hazel was still blooming, and the winter jasmine had just gotten started, but neither one was at their best.
The most fabulous man on the planet gave me this for Valentines Day. It’s better than chocolate. It’s a calla lily. The mystery of what Mr. Hill got his wife for Valentines Day is solved!! Dale’s 10th grade geometry class has been asking, but he wouldn’t tell. They were starting to wonder if the gift was inappropriate.
LOVE this plant! I dug this winter jasmine (Jasminum nudiflorum) from Jennifer’s garden. She has tons, and I thought they were planted much too close together, so I wanted to help her out and thin them a little. (Don’t tell Jennifer, but they really were fine that close together). The plant is similar to forsythia in that it sends up long shoots that fall over and root wherever it touches the ground. You can space it farther apart, and it will creep together. (Jennifer will never miss them.) He is a carefree, tough plant, growing about 6-10 ft. high and, like me, he gets wider each year. He flowers best in full sun, but he’ll take some shade.
My dad visited last week, and we went to the Huntsville Botanical Gardens. He made me lean over to feel this one and make sure it was real. The flower petals look like shiny plastic. It was growing in the shady woodland garden. I think I need one.

This is not a very showy flower, but it is unusual. It’s a ginger (Asarum maximum, ‘Ling Ling’). I’ve killed other Asarum in the past, but he really lives up to the “easy to grow” description. (I fall for that one all the time.) It’s another ground cover for the shaded garden.
I’ve forced paperwhites inside for Christmas before, but this is their début in the garden.
After the daffodils bloom, you have to leave the ugly, brown, dying foliage. Some people tie it in knots or braid it, but that’s just wrong. I plant them in-between my daylilies. The dead foliage just looks like a few brown leaves on the daylily.
This leatherleaf mahonia is last for a reason, it is very invasive, and I don’t recommend it. But it is pretty.
