A few of the silver sage returned and through it popped up summer snowflake. Perfect combo for an otherwise dreary, grey day. #leucojumaestivum #gravetyegiant #summersnowflake #springgardendays #backyardgardens #inmygardentoday #mylittlegardenhouse #springflowershow #springtimegarden #springbulbs #foliageplants #silversage #easyplantstogrow #chicagogardening #zone5bgardening #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore

This just makes me want to come in through the front door instead of through the garage. #entrygarden #mygardentoday #springgardens #prunusincisa #daffodilsinbloom #smallgardendesign #smallspacegardening #zone5bgardening #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore

The seed heads from last year’s Millenium alliums make this stand of Ice Follies daffs in my front yard even better. This wasn’t intentional, but I like it. #daffodilseason #daffodils #icefollies #myfrontyardgarden #springgardens #earlyspringgarden #springflowershow #rabbitresistantflowers #lowmaintenancegarden #zone5bgardening #inmygardennow #happyflowers #pollinatorgardening #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore

Temperatures rose and the Tommy crocuses in the grass had their last hurrah. The bulbs are so easy to slip into the lawn in the fall and when they wake in the spring, it’s like the opening act announcing so much more to come. I can’t believe the rabbits didn’t mow them down. Perhaps they were distracted by the new growth on the asters. Several have been gnawed to the ground. Time to get out the Plantskydd. It’s the only thing that works. @colorblends #crocusesinbloom #springbulbsablooming #springflowershow #crocus #tommycrocus #inmygardennow #smallspacegardening #springgarden #littleflowers #flowerbulbs #growwhatyoulove #purpleflowerseverywhere #inthelawn #lawnalternative #springephemerals #zone5gardening #easyplantstogrow #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore

Love this time of year! The only thing I dislike about spring bulbs is letting the leaves remain long after the flower fades. It just looks weedy until the foliage browns and I can chop it down. #springbulbs #daffodilseason #daffodilsofinstagram #fromtyardgarden #siberiansquill #scillasiberica #springgarden #mygardentoday #smallspacegardens #chicagogardening #zone5gardening #lowmaintenancegardening #pollinatorgardens #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore

The centennial blush magnolia opened today too! Now if I could only find one to replace the one the voles killed to balance the planting along the pergola. #centennialblushmagnolia #magnoliatreesinbloom #lowmaintenancegarden #magnoliaflowers #inmygardentoday #springflowershow #floweringtreesofinstagram #backyardgardening #springgardens #treesofspring #springtrees #zone5gardening #zone5bgardening #smallspacegardens #chicagogardeners #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore

With the redbud gone, this once very shady side yard garden is full on, baked to a crisp sun and all these plants need a new home. Change is the only constant. I have my work cut out for me! #shadegardens #shadegardening #shadeperennials #smallspacegardens #mylittlegardenhouse #easyplantstogrow #lowmaintenancegarden #zone5bgardening #zone5 #hosta #lungwort #resurrectionlily #perennialgarden #sideyardgarden #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore

I’m fascinated by the blue pollen of Siberian squill and hope to see a honey bee with blue pollen sacs instead of yellow for a change. Maybe I’ll even get a few macro snaps of it if I’m lucky. It’s too cold to lay in wait this morning, but maybe tomorrow or sometime this weekend when temps inch near 70. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼#bluepollen #siberiansquill #earlyspringflowers #blueflowersforbees #pollinatorplants #pollinatorgardening #springbulbs #lowmaintenanceplants #easyplantstogrow #springephemerals #zone5bgardening #chicagogardening #backyardgardening #smallspacegardens #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore #💙 #pollinatorgarden #honeybeepollen
