It looks like the daylily, which by rights should have been killed by my monstrous treatment of it last fall, will bring us flowers this year! Of the five daylily clumps, only one doesn't have a visible bud. Of course, the one that isn't showing a flower yet is the one that spent longest out in the cold and rain. Also soon to flower(?) is the mystery plant in front. (A mystery plant in front, really. There's plenty of mystery to go around out there.) I pulled it all out last year, thinking it was a weed. It clearly isn't, but I don't know what it is. It looks like a sort of onion-y chive-y thing. We'll find out soon enough what its nature is when it blooms. Or maybe bears fruit? I am not sure what these will turn into.
Not coming up next and probably not coming up next year is the brunnera. Too bad. I would have liked to have a little blue patch in the front there. It hasn't enjoyed its time with us at all. It was so pretty when we first brought it home.
