As for the Erysimum, I've found [as well as heard from others] that they bloom themselves to death and need to be tossed out and replaced when they get all woody and gnarly. Fortunately they're easy to find and inexpensive. I don't even grow it anymore because I don't have room but it's sure a nice plant when it's in its prime. <br /><br />We got a foot of snow yesterday so about the only photos I can show would be boringly monochromatic. I'm so ready for spring already.GRACE PETERSONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04520343332670354262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861157226256566848.post-89108270694950281492012-03-22T08:28:38.750-07:002012-03-22T08:28:38.750-07:00Ah - forsythia.
