I think silky is better than hairy, they really are stroke-able, and so are the new leaves.
@Fernapple
This flower starts my excitement for the garden in the spring. I like all flowers but the early ones get my special attention.
Maybe I can find some silky photos to share with you.
Sometimes my mind goes somewhere else.
We are still talking about flowers, right?
@flower_nut We are still talking about flowers, yes. But I can go with silky anywhere I find it.
@Fernapple
Silky and a bit of hairy.
I need some in my garden.
@itsmedammit
It definitely makes a statement.
like that late fall hairdo
@btroje
It's hairy but not scary. I love it! We have a hairy clematis too.
@flower_nut there is a wild vine here in NM that the hairy aftermath is more exciting than the flowers
@btroje
That's awesome. I agree some flowers really suck so the aftermath would be the spotlight.
What can I say, I like them hairy!
Beautiful, I had red ones growing in my garden in Colorado.
@OldGoat43
I didn't know it came in a different colour. I'll be on the hunt come spring.
Thank you.
@flower_nut . I just double checked on Google and they have quite a few different colors shown there.
@OldGoat43
If I can find them local I'll pick up every colour they have. When the garden centres open in the spring I'll be looking for the Pasque flower and a few others to fill holes in the garden. It's not a very common plant so I may have to settle for what I have. I'll keep you posted!
What''s it's zone range? An annual??
@bigpawbullets
It's a USDA zone 5-9 and perennial for me. We are a comfortable Canadian gardening zone of 5 here in Nova Scotia. We've had it for several years and I love it.
@flower_nut
Thanks! I was too lazy to look it up. Might do well here in Southern Ohio. I like the looks of it.
@bigpawbullets
Your welcome.
I'm not sure how long we've had it. Never had any problems and it doesn't spread or seed everywhere. It would look great in small spaces.
Posted by FernappleIts that season again, blue sky and golden leaves, nature is the greatest designer, a Ginkgo in my garden. Also posted in photography.
