First Blooms of Spring

This week, my Pink Frost lenten rose (hellebore) bloomed, and I'm so excited. It is one of my favourite plants with its rustic coloured flowers (a combination of deep pink, brown, and ivory). And when the lenten rose blooms, it's a sign that the other plants aren't far behind. As I walked around the garden this morning, I discovered that a lot of other plants are ready to shake off the long winter and come to life. Yay!

The Pulmonaria (Lungwort) will have gorgeous purple flowers very soon.

Bright new leaves from this alumroot (heuchera) are emerging from last season's faded leaves.

I have no idea what these are, but they're pretty.

Rhubarb! Hooray!
