In my friend’s beautiful garden the Camellia 'Spring Festival' (cuspidata hybrid) is flowering. This evergreen shrub has a compact, upright habit and in early spring is covered with these delicate, small, semi-double, pale pink flowers.

A special gift idea for special person. My original artwork of Ceanothus (Californian Lilac). A larger piece than most of the art in my shop, it will make a big statement.

What's poppin' in late February: Part 5 of ~7
Lindera benzoin - Spicebush
Nice native shrub, not terribly noticeable most of the year. But in the spring, when the woods are still mostly gray-brown, its little yellow-green flowers stand out brightly. If you see one, make a tiny little wound in the bark with your fingernail & smell it. I can't describe it well - exotic, perfume/incense, also somehow chemical/industrial? - but I recommend experiencing it.

Before I moved to Oregon, I never knew that hibiscus could survive this far north. Yet here is my Rose of Sharon in all her summery glory.

Hydrangea [19]
Cotton cloud blooms.
Pink and blue.
White and magenta.
Purple, sometimes.
But my favourite, in the deepest stillness of summer, these scentless blooms,
Nodding their curly heads,
To an invisible breeze.

The flowers of Stachyurus praecox are looking smart this year as the display is often damaged by frost. This spreading, deciduous shrub produces bell-shaped, pale yellow-green flowers on purple stems before the leaves emerge.

Pieris japonica (Japanese andromeda hybrid)
Japanese andromeda is a early-spring flowering shrub and it basically comes in two colors: red and white. The genus has only seven species (found in Asia and North America) but there are many hybrid varieties, thirteen of which have merited the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society's, Award of Garden Merit. The white one in photo number three is just a baby but the mature red one at the end of my street must be over four meters tall (13 ft). Something to remember if you're thinking, "Why don't I plant an nice ornamental shrub?"'
