Garden Stroll 

Thus far this Year I have been conducting the Garden Strolls on the First Day of each Month.  Today is an exception.  The flowers were lovely looking and the Morning was overcast so no shadows.  Sometimes I also use the Flash option to acquire a better picture.

Enjoy the Pictures

The Second Garden Stroll

1 February 2022

Today's Stroll will feature Helleborus also known as Lenten Roses.  I quote this from the "Missouri Botanical Gardens" website when I looked up Helleborus Niger:

"Best grown in moist, organically rich, humusy, neutral to alkaline, well-drained soils in part shade to full shade. Prefers light to moderate shade. Locate plants in sheltered locations in areas protected from cold winter winds. Plants usually take several years to establish. Clumps may be divided for propagation, but clumps never require division and will form and grow best when left undisturbed. Plants may self-seed in optimum growing conditions. This species is considered to be more difficult to grow than the similar but later blooming Helleborus orientalis."

The following blooms are from the Gardens at My Home in Middle Georgia.  Enjoy!!
