The Hellebores Revived

Erin of Garden Party with Erin saw the two photos I posted recently of the Lenten Roses/Hellebores not looking too good this year due to the snow. She told me they’d come back! And she was right.

Garden Party with Erin

Meet Erin who has a professional gardening business. Garden Party With Erin Design. Revive. Restore.

She helped me with my jungle of a garden after the Pandemic. Literally transformed the place.

I know my neighbors were thrilled. Me, too!

I knit her a Read This Hat last year with her business name knit into it.

She popped by today with a surprise gift for me. Check out this hoodie! Love it. How about this photo with the sunshine?

Artist who designed her company logo is ________(awaiting Erin’s response but it’s late tonight)

Once a Shrub Now a Tree

Turns out it’s an invasive species now. it was here when I moved in 1991.

“Amur honeysuckle is a massively-branched, perennial shrub with dark green leaves, aromatic white flowers, and luscious burgundy berries that are inedible to humans but relished by birds propagating the seeds. This East Asian native shrub has been utilized in landscape decoration, wildlife cover, and erosion control. However, it is no longer recommended for planting due to invasiveness issues.”
