It's still kind of cold in the Adirondacks for serious gardening. We only have a few crocuses and some daff sprouts. The nights are still too close to freezing for much else. But I did plant the early seeds in the vegetable garden, the snow peas and onion starts, that sort of thing.
On the newfangled bleeding hearts...usually when they inbreed plants to get the newfangled fancy stuff, the new plants are more delicate and picky about their surroundings. That's especially an issue up in the Adirondacks where the situations are always less than ideal. I tend to go for the old standard stock because nothing works the way it's supposed to.
