Hedenbergia Vine In Bloom, On The Late Side…..

Hedenbergia in bloom 2017If you follow my blog, you may already know that I just love sharing with you signs of the changing seasons. Migrating birds, blooming trees, ripening pomegranates and grapes are just a few of the things that make us excited around here, and I now share with you my yearly photos of my hedenbergia vine in bloom…..something that usually happens during the winter as opposed to early Spring, but so be it! Right about now, when some of you may be thinking about your garden, whether in containers or in actually earth, I'd like to recommend this lovely vine to you…….it blooms in the winter when all else in the garden is sleeping (at least in my zone) and in the summer is it a lovely and lush vine, that grows quite quicklym and happily attaches itself to whatever it can.

Hedenbergia in bloom late 2017I'll admit, my vine is a bit unhealthy at the moment, with its greenery sparser than it should be, but it nonetheless gave us lovely blooms, so I'll have to return the favor with a bit more care this year. Happy gardening!

    These hedenbergia vine flowers are so beautiful! The color is amazing. It’s so unusual that a plant blooms in winter, but I’m wondering whether it can stand a very cold weather . It would be nice to have this plant in the garden. All the best, Lilah.
