sigh Same here. You must live in New England, too!

My columbine aren't doing much yet out here in the PNW, but my foxglove is about to bloom!

Canadian prairies. You can see it’s still the colder side from the purpling of the leafs (anthocyanins).

Interesting, thank you.

In CO my Columbine have turned into bushes and are ready to give me hundreds of blooms! I have no idea why they've become such monsters but they're probably three foot diameter spheres.

I dead head mine so they bloom longer, but I think if I left them it would grow larger faster?

Don’t mind the size of these actually.

I actually wouldn't mind if mine were smaller. They're taking over my garden.
