Hello, and welcome to Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for January 2021. If you've been following along with this meme since the beginning, you've just completed 14 years of posts.

Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – December 2020

December 15, 2020 By Carol 19 Comments

Welcome to Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for December 2020. Here in my USDA Zone 6a garden in central Indiana, I went out to the garden expecting to find flower buds on the hellebores, and I was not disappointed. Indeed there are flower buds on several of the Helleborus niger, the Christmas Rose. Weather permitting and cooperating, I think they will actually be in bloom on Christmas Day. What I did not expect to find was a snowdrop, Galanthus sp., in bloom. Yes, I am aware of … [Read more...] about Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – December 2020

 Welcome to Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for November 2020.Here in my USDA Hardiness Zone 6a garden in central Indiana, we've enjoyed some warm November days and some cold November days.

Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – October 2020

October 15, 2020 By Carol Michel 17 Comments

 Welcome to Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for October 2020.Here in my USDA Hardiness Zone 6a garden in central Indiana, we are still in the midst of a late-season dry spell that is in its eighth week.Ever the optimist, I think that surely it is going to rain soon. And we have gotten rain twice, but only one-tenth of an inch each time.  So because I think it is going to rain soon, I don't spend much time watering, and the garden is a testament to that.But all is not completely lost in the … [Read more...] about Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – October 2020

Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – September 2020

September 15, 2020 By Carol Michel 20 Comments

Welcome to Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for September 2020.Here in my USDA Hardiness Zone 6a garden in central Indiana we stopped getting rain around mid-August and the garden is dry as dust.  And that is making it look a little (a lot) rough around the edges.Still, I found some blooms and plenty of them. Plus I am pleased to have spotted lots of bees and butterflies too. They are going quickly from bloom to flower to flower to bloom getting all the nectar they can before our first frost … [Read more...] about Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – September 2020

 Welcome to Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for August 2020.Here in my USDA Hardiness Zone 6a garden in central Indiana, I wasn't quite sure where to begin!
