Bloom Day Again! GBBD 15 December 2009

Here it is, Garden Blogger Bloom Day, all over again!  Well, there's not much blooming in my yard today.


  • Calendula (just a couple)
  • Strawberries (just a few)
  • Nasturtium (just a couple under the eaves, the rest are toast from the freeze)
  • Jade Plant
  • Impatiens
  • White Potato Vine
  • Plumbago (the vining variety; the creeping variety is toast from the freeze)
  • Sticky Monkey Flower! (Yay! One of my California natives!)

  1. I expect that the pansies that survived through the summer from last year will start blooming soon over here. Hope so, anyway, as begonias & impatiens were hit hard by Mr. Frost.

  2. I'm kind of surprised the impatiens didn't bite it in during the freeze, but the one big tub is under a canopy of foliage and the other, smaller pots are under cover of the deck roof. Apparently that was enough. Tho' the ones in the "window box" (middle-sized planter) are looking a little "weathered."

    It was rather amazing to see the nasturtiums that were directly under the eaves come out looking just swell while the leaves *just* out from under that cover all thrashed.
