We love Brookside Gardens, but especially this time of year. Who wouldn’t?

Photos taken April 13 of this year (2012).

And one last shot showing nothing in blooms – just some faded tulips. But this evergreen for shade is at the top of my must-get list this year. It’s the variegated Osmanthus ‘Goshiki’ and it looks awesome along the north facade of Brookside’s education center – every day of the year.

Stephanie Fleming was raised at Behnke’s Nurseries in Beltsville. Her Mom, Sonja, was one of Albert & Rose Behnke’s four children. She was weeding from the moment she could walk and hiding as soon as she was old enough to run, so many weeds, so little time. Although she quickly learned how to pull out a perennial and get taken off of weed pulling duty.
