Blooming Now Highlights
These are a few of the plants feature in the video on this post. First, I want to let you know that I am trying to document each plant that is reviewed on my website. For example, the hydrangea images are from my Strawberry Vanilla Hydrangea and new bloom again varieties.
The second photo above features the new hydrangea’s I planted in late summer. This will include the ‘Lets Dance – Big Bang’ which I will share later in the year on this blog.
I was trying to get a closer photo of the Hosta under the ‘Black Lace’ shrub when I spotted a volunteer Columbine blooming.
The 2 magnolia trees in my garden. The first one is Jane Magnolia and the second is the older Magnolia.
Blooming Early in the Garden
Everything seems to be about a week or two ahead of schedule after a week in the high 70*s. I am just praying we don’t get a hard frost that knocks back all the fruit trees like the white peach in the photo below.
Summing up the blooming now post today I would like to invite you to check out previous post using this theme. Let me know below if you are interested in seeing more short video post like this on my site in the days to come.

Back in Black Sedum
One of the plants I love cultivating in my garden is the sedum. This post includes a brief video showcasing the Rock ‘N’ Grow Back in Black Stonecrop Sedum. Accompanying the video are some of my preferred photographs and invaluable growing tips. Soon enough, you’ll be admiring new varieties in your northern garden! Rock & Grow Sedum Video Take a close look at this perennial with nearly black foliage in my full sun garden. The blooms are beginning to emerge for a late summer display! This plant is completely drought-tolerant, making it one of the simplest plants to cultivate. https://youtu.be/qL3sAyNmEpo You can find this video on the Bren Haas YouTube Channel. If you encounter any issues viewing it or have questions about the plant not addressed in this post, please feel free to email me. Back in Black Growing Tips Macro Photo of Blooms In my Ohio hardiness zone 5b /6 garden I have been growing sedum since 2001. My first experience was with a short ground cover that blooms yellow and is super easy to propagate. After growing this plant I was addicted to finding more sedum / stonecrop because of its tolerance to my abuse. Below are just a few of the things I LOVE MOST about the Back in Black Sedum. This plant is a perennial in zones 3-9 Compact in size growing only 2.5 feet wide and tall. Drought, heat and salt tolerant making it a ‘win-win’ in most any soil. Clusters of dark red flowers that the pollinators in my garden LOVE The almost black foliage all growing season. Here are a few of my favorite photos of this plant. Select each photo for an enlarged view! It is good to take photos this time of year so to note what needs to be done. Next spring I hope to move this plant so it has more space in the garden. The perennial is too close to the Montauk Daisy. Both of these plants look amazing together! The Rock ‘N Grow ‘Back in Black’ Stonecrop is hidden in the photo above. I am sharing this photo to show the space with other perennials that look great with this sedum. I hope you get some ideas for your home garden.
