Helga's Hat

Post by Patrushka »

I bought this one for the name and I'm really liking it. DH's grandmother's name was Helga. It's not the greatest pic as it's been raining/drizzling nonstop here.

Thanks so much everyone. :D It really turned out to be as special as its name. 8-)

Jane, I hope yours hide out until the danger of snow and wind are gone.

Thanks, I noticed some fat buds and wondering what 42 would even do them. They seem to be taking it in stride. Maybe they'll wait till cold stream is past :)

Will they bloom if they are ready and I cut them and put them in water? Or not?

That's a pretty one Pat! :)
Can't wait until mine start blooming. So far all I've seen are the little dwarf rebloomers that always come out the earliest.
