Almost December and the garden’s still alive

Brodiaea coronaria patches already started sending up leaves in early November (mature patches).  The earliest I’d seen them come up before was the first week of December.

Some plants are still in bloom:  Sea thrift (Armeria maritima), Erigeron compositus (Sub-alpine daisy, after cutting back first growth, stems are shorter and flowers last longer), Gaillardia aristata.

And some seeds have already started germinating:  Plectritis congesta, Blue fescue, Collomia grandiflora, Wild blue flax.  The may need to be covered with a cloche for frost.
