    Ladies, you are not going to believe this, but I was doing a bit of sweeping up in the garden last Saturday and guess what I saw?

    Hepatica flowers! Yay! I've only had the plants about 10 years! Hopefully they've got the hang of it now.



    I'm so happy.

    I thought maybe the grey ladies were using a special kind of water (if you get my meaning) and that was causing them not to flower? LOL...

    OR, is it possible the greys graze on them?

    Obviously, they were just in the slow group!

    What a pretty picture to see on an overcast day in Chicago! I'm glad your plant has flowered, KK - the blooms are very pretty and so is the photo! Thank you for sharing it!
