Winter Bloomers

Winter Bloomers

We had a few plants that bloomed throughout the winter. 

Outdoors, our Pansies (VIOLA X WITTROCKIANA) never stopped blooming.

We also had several Dianthus plants (DIANTHUS PLUMARIUS) that bloomed throughout the winter. This is what they looked like in September:

They look a little better now (04/12/14):

We also have some mounding Dianthus that I will post about later. They are blooming now and are really pretty.
