Brookside Outdoors – March 2018
/I walked (quickly) around Brookside Gardens earlier this week; it was sunny but cold! I saw some tiny daffodils blooming in a bed near the conservatories; the larger varieties are weeks away and the tulips are barely out of the ground. The witch hazels were what I wanted to see…and they did not disappoint. They provide a lot of color in the wooded sections of the gardens with the red centers and yellow streamers of the flowers.
There were early spring bulbs to see too. The snowdrops were probably the most numerous.
There were crocuses blooming as well.
The dwarf irises were a pleasant surprise. There were at least two colors. They are only a little larger than snowdrops.
