On the fifteenth of every month, Carol at May Dreams Gardens hosts Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day. Garden bloggers from around the world are invited to post images of blooms in their gardens.  Many thanks to Carol for hosting the floral party; it's a great way to peek at gardens around the planet.

Due to our recent freezing weather, there's not a lot blooming in my garden at the moment.  Inside the greenhouse, some of the schlumbergeras are still blooming.  (You may notice that no moss has covered the ugly pot yet but I got the moss and it's sitting in a bag waiting.

Abutilons outside are a bit frozen and probably won't resume blooming until later in the year, assuming that the freeze didn't do them in.  However inside is a different story.


The crazy pelargonum (geranium) is looking cheerful.

Believe it or not, even with night temperatures in the teens, there are still blooms outside.

Camellia japonica


Lonicera fragrantissima

Viburnum × bodnantense ‘Dawn’


Helleborus argutifolius which is now a mostly prostrate 7 foot circle of weirdness.  One of these years, I swear that I'll support it somehow.

Garrya
There may be a primrose or two blooming but during the freeze they were laying on the ground and looking quite shriveled.  Most likely the winter jasmine has a bloom or two as it has for a couple of months now.   Only 64 days until the vernal equinox!
