Four multicolored Violas ("baby pansies") in an earthtone 10 inch plastic planter. And in the center is a pretty yellow snapdragon, just coming into bloom. These spring colors will liven your deck or patio till the really hot weather arrives, and then a bit longer. The warmer the weather, the more water they will need. If you bring them to part shade as the weather warms, they will bloom longer this spring. For renewed fall blooms, regularly water and care for them over summer.

Anemones' timeless grace enhances any garden. This species of anemones can be some of the earliest perennials to cover woodland floors with delicate, nodding blooms. Perennial anemones are easy to grow, and once established, they can create large colonies of plants for grand displays. Anemones spread by underground rhizomes that multiply readily. For best results, plant anemones in well-drained soils rich in organic matter. The extra organic matter keeps a consistent moisture in soil. Many spring-blooming anemones are ephemeral, meaning the foliage will die back in summer and plants will go dormant. This can happen quickly if the soil is allowed to dry too much or too often. Planting anemones in part sun protects foliage from drying out too much. You can divide anemones in spring as plants emerge.

Also known as Alum Root, Heuchera is a beautiful genus of perennial foliage plants that will add a punch of color to any spot in your garden. This one is a larger plant at maturity than some of my others. Coral Bells begin blooming in midspring and continue through the summer months. We suggest dead-heading to prolong the bloom season. Will grow in any well-drained alkaline soil. They generally prefer part shade, especially in our heat. They are drought tolerant, very cold hardy (Zone 4), and many of them will even stay evergreen through the winter.

Episcias (flame violets), Gesneriads which are related to African violets, are natives of Central & South America. They are grown in temperate regions as houseplants, primarily for their attractive foliage. But with good east or artificial lighting, they will also bloom at regular intervals throughout the year. These plants like it warmer and more humid than do most houseplants. Flame violets are fast growers which send out stolons, or long stems with baby plants on the ends. By the end of the summer, your plant will have several hanging all around its little pot, and be ready to transplant to a hanging basket.

Lenten rose is an evergreen, 15- to 18-inch tall groundcover with leathery, dark-green, shiny foliage. Their new growth generally appears during late January and February, and precedes the 3- to 4-inch nodding, cup-shaped flowers that quickly emerge through the mulch or snow layer. Pollen attracts mainly bumblebees during the late winter flowering period. This item has a light pink/cream flower with a greenish center, and I will list other colors separately as available. The petals of the Lenten rose are actually sepals, and do not drop readily as with other flowers, but last for a couple of months. Some darker colors may fade over the 8- to 10-week bloom and fruiting period. As the flower turns into a fruit, mature seeds are dropped beneath the canopy of foliage. Soon small seedlings will appear in dense clusters which can be readily transplanted to additional shady sites. Lenten roses are long-lived plants and rarely need dividing. To enhance plant growth, they can be fertilized with a slow-release fertilizer when new foliage begins to appear in late winter. They do well under very dry conditions, are naturally deer and rabbit repellent, have very few insect pests or disease problems, and require little care. Lenten roses have coarse-textured, dissected foliage, which combines especially well in the landscape with the delicate foliage of ferns, the more rounded foliage of hosta, and smaller-leafed perennials and shrubs. Their evergreen foliage provides winter interest when many other perennials are dormant.

This mint has a sweet orange flavor, and green, branching stems tinged with red that reach 2 feet when growing in full sun to part shade. Leaves are round to oval, smooth and dark green with a red edge. White and pink flowers in short spikes bloom from mid to late summer. Very fragrant, citrus-like scent. Orange mint thrives alongside water gardens or in damp spots in the yard, but will also survive in drier soil. Lushest growth occurs in moist soil in partial shade, where you may want to leave it in its pot to help curtail its wandering ways. Crush fresh leaves into water for a refreshing beverage, or add to iced tea or cold drinks. Use fresh leaves in salads or to make mint sauce for fish or lamb. Try making orange mint jelly and orange mint vinegar. Pick leaves frequently.

NOTE: Parsley is a biennial, meaning it will live for only two years. These plants are still very young and will need some growing time before you can harvest. This slightly peppery and bright herb is so much more than a bit of green on the side of your plate. Parsley is a great source of vitamin C, calcium, iron and fiber. Raw parsley also acts as a breath freshener and has anti-inflammatory properties. To store parsley, rinse with cool water and then wrap in a slightly damp paper towel in a resealable plastic bag and keep in the fridge. You can dry your fresh parsley by tying a bunch together and hanging it upside down in a cool, dry place. When the parsley is completely dry, remove the stems and store the dried leaves in an airtight container. You can also dry out your parsley in a slightly warm (100 degrees F) oven or in a dehydrator.

Rosemary is used as a decorative plant in gardens and has many culinary and medical uses. The plant is said to improve the memory, and is a symbol of remembrance at weddings and funerals. The leaves are used to flavor various foods, like stuffings and roast lamb, pork, chicken and turkey, as well as barbeque. Rosemary contains antioxidants and other bioactive compounds, some of which may be useful in preventing or treating cancers, strokes, and Alzheimer's Disease. Rosemary is native to the Mediterranean area and to Asia, and can withstand prolonged droughts. It can grow quite large and retain attractiveness for many years, can be pruned into formal shapes and low hedges, and has been used for topiary. It is easily grown in pots, and since it may not be reliably hardy in this area, it is recommended that you plant it in a container which can be brought inside, at least into a sunny garage window for some protection, in winter.

This is the plant I had formerly mis-identified as Astrantia, or Masterwort. I finally found someone on a plant ID site who was able to give me the correct ID. Sorry for the confusion! This is actually one of the stranger early spring perennials... Mukdenia rossii. I'm sorry that it doesn't have a common name, since that Latin name is a mouthful. Mukdenia rossii is native to rocky slopes and ravines in China, Manchuria and Korea. It is a compact herbaceous perennial similar to coral bells in habit and height. Palmate medium green leaves are tinged with bronze and attractive throughout the growing season. White, bell-shaped flowers rise above the foliage clump to 16” tall in March and April. Best grown in moist, fertile, well-drained soils in part shade, it appreciates afternoon shade or sun dappled shade in the south. Plants spread over time by short creeping rhizomes, and may self-seed in optimum growing conditions.

This variety is about 14" tall. Shasta Daisies are all-time favorites for the perennial border. The cheery flowers begin to appear in late spring and continue on for several months if faithfully deadheaded. Shastas mix so effortlessly with other perennials that no garden should be without them! This is a plant that is easily grown in average, well-drained soils in full sun. It's a good cut flower, attracts butterflies, is suitable for dried flowers, and serves as a butterfly nectar sources. In spring, remove all dead foliage; and cut back to basal foliage in fall. Cuttings can be done in summer; and division can be done in the spring and is recommended every 2-3 years.

This azalea is a more established plant in a three-gallon pot. It has soft pink flowers with deeper rose-pink throat markings. It is easy to grow in light to medium shade, and is cold-hardy and weather resistant. Its growth is vigorous but disciplined, and it will reliably cover itself with color in early spring. Then in September it will produce a second flush of color, perhaps not as prolific as in spring, but very welcome at a time of year when not too many flowers are in bloom.

This azalea has large white flowers streaked a very little with pink. It is easy to grow in light to medium shade, and is cold-hardy and weather resistant. Its growth is vigorous but disciplined, and it will reliably cover itself with color in early spring. Because the bushes are the same size as the rest of my azaleas, I have chosen to show you a closeup of the color of a "typical" bloom.
