March 23, 2025 — Lots of sun but quite cold again this week; the earliest bulbs and many hellebores are already open or are opening now. My “tommie” crocus are lovely, as are the hellebores. Enjoy!

Adrienne,
I thought I had a good garden book library but your list was excellent! Lots of books I didn’t know about. The movie was so moving. So disturbing what these people are living through. I truly can’t imagine. Thank you so much for your newsletter! I truly enjoyed it.
Thanks Becky! If you have a particular favorite garden book, I’d love to know about it. I enjoy perusing garden books, especially in winter.
