Plant Your Scallions
You buy a bundle of scallions, or green onions, or whatever they call them at your grocery, and you use half of them. What do you do with the other half? You can root them in water, or just stick them in the ground, and they will grow fat stalks with beautiful flowers that last for days in a vase.

The First Daylily
Every year we bring you this early daylily, which came from an unnamed hybrid seedling. Here it is again, blooming today.
This picture is not an artistic masterpiece, but it does demonstrate the interesting fact that this daylily is blooming before the tulips have faded.

Lily of the Valley
Convallaria majalis is a popular planting everywhere, and it persists and spreads indefinitely once planted. These are semi-wild descendants of a planting in Beechview that is at least decades old.
