Garden Surprise


When we moved into this house, just over a year ago, I brought along a couple clippings of creeping jenny. They sat in water on the counter and eventually rooted. I stuck them in one of the flower beds and the little suckers too off. Then they overwintered and started up again this spring. And now, I have chanced upon them in flower! I have never seen creeping jenny in flower before. The flowers strike me as quite large compared to the average leaf size. How exciting!

I just love that bright green, chartreuse color. It will spread like crazy -- I love to dig some up and incorporate it into pots for both the color and the leaf shape!
