It’s not too early to think about late spring

Next season will be here sooner than you think (or at least it always seems that way).

Today ’s GPOD comes to us from Karen Cormier of Scarborough , Ontario:“These are pictures of late outflow when the daffodil , tulip , and forget - me - nots of spring have retreated and the purples and pinks of former summer are occur into full bloom . The border is interspersed with bantam clumps of pinkish Dianthus caryophyllus and coral bells , while the garden ’s blooms include bachelor buttons , bleeding hearts , and gravid alum . The yellows of the daylily , variegated yucca , Au - tipped euonymus , and golden cotoneaster allow for a soft contrast to the pinks and lilacs . We sleep together our genus Hosta for their diverseness of size and colour . They do well in almost any condition but we find the lighter varieties do better in tad , while the thick blueness do well in sunny placement . Overhanging the Hosta is a stock tears willow tree . It gets a “ brush cut ” in early spring and a few trimming during summertime to keep its shape . Across from the hostas is a radical of white cotoneaster , not yet in bloom . The final painting is in late spring when the pink azalea and bleeding pump are in full bloom , with a few daffodils and tulips hanging on . ”
