Really pretty Eloise!

Karen

Wow thank you for sharing, I really needed to see something live outdoors! I tried to grow cardoon last year, but lost the seedlings in spring. Will try again this year for sure, what a great looking plant!

Have a great day!

Beautiful blooms Eloise. It's nice to see something still growing after all the snow and rain this winter. Thank you for sharing your pictures.I keep telling myself only a little longer till spring. :)

Pretty flowers. Before enlarging the pics I thought your MM was speckled with color, not mud. lol

My cardoon plants were beautiful and there's a good chance they are still alive under the snow. They had actually been looking ok up until mid Jan, even with the sub freezing temps. My artichokes have been coming back the past 3-4 years so maybe the cardoon will do the same.

Thanks for the pix Eloise. I've got a few brugs blooming now and I've been trudging through the mud to admire them. Can't wait for my MM to bloom.
