March Plants

Apricot blossoms

• A hardy, deciduous, early flowering tree which will produce delicious Apricots late summer.

• As the blossoms appear early in the year, they might need protection from frost.

• Plant in a sheltered sunny spot.

Forsythia

• A bright yellow shrub.

• Can be a little garish, but nice to see some color after the long dark winter month. The blossoms appear before the leaves.

• Easy to grow. Best planted in sun.
  

Mahonia Japonica

• This lovely evergreen shrub is best grown in semi-shade. Flowers start to develop in late October and bloom till March or April.

• Flowers in primrose-yellow develop in the center of each leave rosette. Leaves are dark green, shiny and holly shaped, but larger.

Lungwort Pulmonarioides

• A lovely plant with its blue and pink blossoms and easy to grow. They look beautiful in a woodland setting and equally lovely in a herbaceous border.

• When finished flowering the grayish green spotted leaves form a ground cover.

Euphorbia

• This one is the common variety of Euohorbias. They bloom for a very long time and grow well in sun or shade. Euphorbias look especially good with Alliums.

Periwinkle

• A very good evergreen ground cover plant.

• Dark green glossy foliage and pretty blue flowers in early spring.

Epimedium

• A very tough and easy to grow plant. Leaves stay on all the time turning to copper in winter with new green shoots appearing through the old foliage in spring.

• The delicate yellow flowers appear early March. Epimedium are best grown in sun or halve shade.
