In this post I share a short video featuring how beautiful the Pulmonaria ‘Spot On’ perennial is in my home garden this spring.  Enjoy a few growing tips and images below.

Pulmonaria ‘Spot On’ Perennial Video

It was so much fun enjoying the evening and morning blooms taking this video.  You will see the bee that visits all day long to enjoy this space in my garden.  The little blooms are joined by a few of my tulips I’ve had growing in this space way before adding the pulmonaria.  It is fun to see how they work together well in the early spring.  As the tulips dies back the pulmonaria ‘spot on’ foliage with cover it.

My video is found on the Bren Haas Channel.  Be sure to connect with me if you have issues viewing this article and video.  This plant is one of my favorites from Walters Gardens.

About the Pulmonaria ‘Spot On’ Perennial

‘Spot On’ Pulmonaria is a new introduction for Proven Winner Perennials.  The Pulmonaria perennial is the perfect addition to any home garden welcoming spring early on.  Flowers appear in early spring in my home garden under the Black Lace Shrub. The flowers of ‘Spot On’ open a unique deep salmon pink that matures to a rich blue color.  Use the speckled foliage as an accent for other shade plants all the way into Autumn hard frost.  Below are some key points to LOVE about this plant:

  • Deer and Rabbit resistant
  • One of the first plants to bloom in the spring after hellebores
  • Beautiful Silver/grey shades foliage to enjoy after the blooms
  • Easy to grow with little maintenance
  • Border Plant, Container, Cut Flower, Cut Foliage, and mass planting makes this plant a winner!

Below is a photo of the original Pulmonaria I’ve had growing in my landscape since 2006.  You can see that there aren’t many blooms in each clustering steam.

Tall Peach Iris In My Home Garden

To be honest with you, I don’t remember having this variety of iris in my home garden.  This past week the tall peach bearded iris is blooming again. Tall Peach Iris in My Home Garden I am guessing I dug this up from my sister in laws house.   It is next to a beautiful blue bearded iris in the front sunroom garden.  Early in the season I removed the ivy from around the base of the tubers.  I was worried the ivy would choke the plant off and I would lose the blooms.  Actually, I think having the roots covered by the ivy made it bloom.  This tall peach iris had over a dozen bloom on about 5 fans or leaves. I took this photo with my Nikon this afternoon.  It was super fun exploring this iris variety. About The Peach Bearded Iris There are a few different varieties of this peach iris out there.  After searching on Google I was shocked to find so many.  I wonder if they all bloom early in the season like this one did.  Because of the random weather we’ve been having over the years I would recommend this to a garden that is in zones 5 or less.  The peach color doesn’t like the heat and humidity.  In autumn I am making notes to move this bearded iris to a spring shade location to see how the color of the bloom will respond.  Be sure to follow my blog to find out more about this peach iris.  https://youtu.be/G5hu9n-Oz-Q Thank you for checking out my website today!    Let’s Connect Thank you for checking out my website today.  I appreciate hearing from you if you don’t mind leaving a comment below.  Let me know if you grow iris in your home garden.  I will do my best to get back with you if you want to comment and leave your email.

Kodiak Orange Diervilla in Spring

Kodiak Orange Diervilla During Spring Season

In this post I share a short video and images of the Kodiak Orange Diervilla.  You will find photos of the colorful shrub in spring landscape thriving in various conditions. Kodiak Orange Diervilla in Spring Take a short walk with me out to the spring landscape.  It began to snow while taking note in the shade area of the garden.  You will enjoy the different footage capture in my spring Ohio garden feature below. This is part of my Bren Haas Video Channel.  Be sure to stay tune for more images and videos as the seasons change. Kodiak Orange Diervilla Images Today we grow 3 of the Kodiak Orange Diervilla shrubs in our Ohio Gardens.  These images are from spring in 2022.  As you can see the shrub is very bronzy with peach and yellow tones early on.  During the spring these shrubs are basically in full spring sun.  Keep in mind these plants are out in extreme conditions with snow, ice and extremely warm spring sunshine days.  The night temperature has dropped to the high 20’s on some occasions. It isn’t until mid summer when the sun is full and the conditions start to turn humid and hot that the orange starts to come on.  Over all the shrub is super easy to keep happy with little to NO maintenance requirements. I prefer the shrub out in the landscape on its on for stand out color however, it is doing well in a mass planting with perennials and shrubs. I am anxiously waiting to see a bloom on these shrubs. Here is the shrub in late summer 2nd year in my garden Where To Purchase This Shrub I recommend purchasing the plant from Great Garden Plants online.  The plant is shipped to you from a Proven Winners greenhouse.  – Bren Haas What do you think of this shrub feature today?  You will want to stay tune to see how this shrub changes in color later in the season into Autumn. Let’s Connect The Kodak Orange Diervilla is a shrub I highly recommend for most any landscape.  I would love to hear from you so please be sure to comment on the post below.  You can find this and other creative ideas from home and landscape on my website.
