Spring! * 2
    #26574864 - 04/03/20 09:39 AM (3 years, 9 months ago)

Has Sprung!

Got all kinds of stuff popping up around the house.

Trillium cuneatum.



Urtica dioica.



Japanese Painted Fern.



My banana stump has babies encircling the whole stump!

It survived a zone 7 winter basically uncovered!



More Ferns.







Not sure on this one.

I think it's a Phlox.

I'm going to have to go take some pics out in the woods later, I found some flowering Lonicera sempervirens the other day. All the natives ferns have been popping out too, and the mullberry and paw paw trees are in full pollination mode.

wow man, I gotta see all that!

My Pawpaw tree is still bare, and all the ones in the woods are too.

Some of the stuff that I pictured actually all came from the wild, and I transplanted them at my house.

I took them from a wooded area that was about to be destroyed, so I don't consider this poaching.

not sure what that first one is, the second is called skunk cabbage

In my yard my peach trees are flowering and my hops are popping up. Fingers are crossed for some good wine cap yields after the rain.

I've never seen skunk cabbage before.

I haven't found any wine caps in years :mad2:

I need to cultivate my own.

My bed is well established. Although I need a fresh layer of natural mulch this year.
when I pull up weeds this is what the roots look like

A few years ago I found a random palmetto seeding growing next to a sidewalk in downtown DC. The closest natural habitat for sabal palmettos is SE Virginia, although they do grow along the coast from Delaware south if cultivated.

No way!

How is that even possible?

I've been thinking of growing some of those ouT here, but I thought zone 7 would be a bit too cold.

Now I have hope!

Oh awesome, missed this earlier!

I really need to find some again so I can start up a bed!

I grew some before from stem butts in a pot of mulch.

Palm trees will survive in DC. Unfortunately that seedling was pissed on by too many dogs and died



There’s a wild lemon tree in a park across the street from my friends as well as some cultivated ones in the national botanical gardens. The big one is wild and had thousands of lemons last year

That is fantastic!

You're grow zone 7 right?

That tree is wicked, but it's not a lime tree, it's a Trifoliate Orange tree.

The only citrus tree that can survive that far up north.

The oranges are just ornamental and not edible.

Maybe te little tree. The big tree is a lemon cause I’ve used them. I think it’s a Meyer lemon.

The leaves look tri foliate in both the picks. You probably have a decent tasting cultivar, or. Maybe you have some sort of hybrid. Bur lemons don't have tri foliate leaves.

The Trifoliate Orange is very sour, so that is probably why you got confused.

Dude, I love Autumn Olive trees!

I have two that I transplanted a couple years back from the wild. I brought them home in my backpack while out fishing.

They are now 10 foot tall!

I love the berries they are delicious!

Mine are finally blooming this year too :excited:

Rhubarb.



Bull thistle.



Transplanted Papaver somniferum.



Transplanted California Poppy.



This was supposed to be a Poppy bed only, but the birds got in before I covered it with chicken wire.

I ended up having to put some other flowers and plants in the place of the ones that were destroyed.



On of my Pomegranate trees is slowly coming out from the base.



My Garlic and Onion beds.



Mustard Spinach in full bloom.



Not sure what type of lettuce this is, but it sure is purty!



Arugula Flowering.



Kale.



Spinach.



Elephant Garlic.



Autumn Olive.



I grew this pear tree from a seed last season, and even after topping it, it's nearly as tall as I am!



Opuntia, looking rough



A line of various greens down the side of mys shed.



And some Coleus.

Good shit man. I've probably ripped out hundreds of those autumn olive plants so far, and there must be thousands more. They're flowering en masse right now and it does smell amazing. I have my poppy beds covered in plastic netting to keep the damn squirrels out.

Well, my Lime Tree is finally blooming at the right time!

Last year it started blooming just as it got cold for the winter, so only a couple of limes made it indoors, due to low lighting.

Now, this season it's right on time!

It's loaded with buds right now!!!

I was going to give up on it ever flowering, but it took exactly five years from seed to do so.

I should get a ton of limes this season, if all goes right :grin:

Even with this freezing cold, my plants are doing great!

However, I overdid it on the greens and it's all starting to bolt!

I just can't eat it all fast enough!

I'll have to clear some of them out, and make room for my chili pepper and tomato plants soon.

I had some tobacco plants last year. Not sure it was worth it. They got infected with a mosaic virus that spread throughout the garden. All the vine plants (cukes and melons and squash) got infected as well.
