Sweetfern, Comptonia peregrina, is neither sweet nor a fern. It looks like something the dinosaurs would have walked through, releasing the warmest, spiciest aromas of imagination.
Thanks for your comment! This stalwart begonia has managed to survive the house-plant-outdoor-plant cycle twice so far...fingers crossed for another season outdoors this summer :)
That is such a beautiful sight!!!! We are now entering our biggest snow time of year, and it is hard to take. But I don't need to tell you about that!!!

My mother brought begonias indoors as house plants. Beautiful photo.

ReplyDeleteHa! Well, I know it's Spring somewhere, but only because I read a lot of Irish and British blogs! ;)
