Oh, that Oscar's famous black Helleborus Do we know its name?

A beautiful day here, 27C (81F). I am supposed to work and write in the house, but I just cannot help myself; I have to go outside.
Planning flower succession pays off, so far Crocuses are finishing but little Scialla sibericas are popping everywhere


And Puschinia albas; I will have to plant more of these in the fall


Here are the small bulbs from the front garden. I definitely need to plant more Puschinias. In the upper right corner is my Helleborus Orientalis seedling. People say that Hellebore seedlings do not turn pretty; they usually pick up the worst qualities from their parents. This one surprised me with a bud this spring. We will know what this little plant inherited from its parents in a couple of days


The herbaceous NOID that I call White Lady emerged today


Hoki is looking good, so far


So is Necklace with Precious Pearls I didn't expect her to have buds this year because it was totally covered and shaded by a Clematis last year. I am pleasantly surprised by a bud Hopefully, this will be her first bud in my garden


And Colourful Butterfly has a bud Love this one Both Necklace and Butterfly are "caged" because they are still small; that is, God forbid , raccoons or dogs can destroy them in a second.
