We planted...

Gerbera
Arenaria Montana – Sandwort
Blue star creeper
Dwarf bee balm
Sweet woodruff
False spirea
White comets
Heuchera
Bleeding heart
Hens and chicks
Coral bells
Columbine

And possibly more.

Not real sure where it all landed.




And all the allium are fit to pop. Everyone will be purple.
The Solomon's seal is filling in this year.








I promise no more garden pictures until it has spread about a bit.
June or July

But do look at these two late bloomers,
Red anemones and blue.




We worked in the garden from nine to five.
A less royal we this week;
I'm beat, too.

  1. WOW! You're way ahead of me. Love the pictures - at least I can enjoy vicariously.
    I will say that our miniature maple trees are happily sprouting everywhere and the same vicious little weed that drove me nuts last year has also returned. My back aches already just thinking about it.

  2. I think I see pansies, I never heard of all those others. I'm not much of a garden guy, but I do like flowers.

  7. I think we need a picture in a few weeks to see the progress and then the "final" picture when all is in bloom. That is a lot of planting; a lot of hard work. I'm sure all will sleep well tonight!

  8. We are still having frost some nights; no planting here yet. You all did a huge amount of work; I'd need the Tylenol after that effort!

  16. So exciting to see where everything comes up! In my case it is so often weeds which I cherish for ages and then suddenly recognise :)

  22. Just had to let you and Janice know that I got a wren in the lilac bush at the bottom of the stairs..It is the house that Tom and Laura made and Laura painted..Chappy sits close by and wonders what all the noise is about.He does not realize that when he comes up the stairs, the noise stops.
