I'd love to have some sweet peas climbing somewhere. They were one of my gram's favourite flowers. She always had a bouquet of them around.
I love this orange. I wanted all pinks in the garden, but I think I could make room for some orange, too.
I still have an old fish tank I've been meaning to convert into a terrarium.
I also want to find some bleeding hearts for the yard this year, too. They're one of my favourites. Wouldn't it be sweet to have a small hedge of them?
I wonder if we'll get any flowers on the apple tree this summer.
Idle Husband surprised me with a cyclamen last month, and I've actually kept it alive so far. It's even managed to put out some new leaves. That's pretty good for a house plant as I haven't really had much luck keeping them alive lately. I think it takes a while to figure out what plants will grow happily in a new home.

I miss my garden, it's currently sleeping under 3feet of snow. I can't wait to plant some new flowers this year & see how my lilies are doing after their big separation in the fall.
Have you ever had flowers on your apple tree? If there isn't a compatible male/female tree somewhere nearby (around the neighbourhood) or bees (or other pollinators) you won't get flowers, or fruit. :(
I have a single apple tree in our yard and it flowers + fruits every year because of the other apple trees in the neighbourhood but I've been thinking about getting another one so I can do grafting and cross-hybridization.
I can't wait to see how everything I planted last summer managed the winter. We just planted the apple tree last year so it didn't have any flowers. I have my fingers crossed!
