Assignment

Just wondering if anyone out there know if this week's assignment is plant pathology or physiology?
Some of my bulbs are just beginning to pop through the tundra. Anyone have outdoor flowers yet? Sigh... Soon the snow will be gone. At least I've heard it's so.
Does anyone have any Hellebores? I've never seen the actual plants and was wondering how they perform and how big they grow in our area. Do they take time to become established before blooming?
There is a way to do team postings on Blogger; would any of you be interested? This way you could post your own questions instead of only responding to mine. You would have to join Blogger but it is free. I will check the procedure and let you know. If any of you are experienced with blogging help me out here, okay?
