Watering the garden in March

Helleborus x Gold series
I honestly cannot ever recall having to water the garden in March. I looked outside this morning and saw my Helleborus Gold flowers drooping. 

Thankfully, they perked up again.

Mini Narcissus " JetFire "






I'm not sure what to make of this early spring. I enjoy seeing the garden come alive...
Sedum telephium " Autumn Joy "
Blue Scilla




It's so strange having to water my partly shaded garden. Can't imagine how full sunny beds are fairing.


Given the way things are turning out,  I will start mulching and adding more compost to keep up moist levels.

Thankfully there is rain in the forecast later this week.

I figure, the garden is in the usual stage of late April early May already. Wow...
My Brunnera macrophylla " Variegata " has reverting leaves. Wondering if the heat and the strange winter/spring has helped to cause this reversion.
