Shady Side of Things
The shady side of the yard is becoming peppered with sweet woodruff and it's lovely white flowers.
The maidenhair fern is beautifully graceful now, and I keep meaning to get this iris out of it, but I don't want to disturb...
Another maidenhair fern with a new variegated hosta.
A nice Saxifraga new from Sharon last year.
The path through the shade garden, Hydrangea, Rhodies, Emerald green Pyrmadalis and the perfect Sweet Woodruff.
A new Heuchera from Karen.
And Epimedium, with very delicate white and pick cross shaped flowers. These are held above the plant on a wire stem, I'm trying to get a good shot of them.

May Blooms
Alliums, Iris, Poppies, Azaleas.
Ajuga.
Coral Bells.
Variegated Euphorbia in bloom.
Our favorite Saxifraga.
The Lilacs I planted from "sticks" off our old shrubs have a couple blooms this year!
I discovered a new plant last year, don't know how I missed it all these years! Campanula...it's a very good one. This one has giant purple and white double or triple edged bells and is called 'Pantaloons'.
The Rhodys in the back yard have opened, and I'm in love again.
The pink azaleas are in full glory now.
Alpine Poppies among the shade plantings.
A favorite spring flower, blue Muscari.
The pink Dogwood tree in bloom.
Candy tuft at the foot of emerging Bearded Iris.
The Siberian Bluebells were very cheery this year and great with the Euphorbia.
Johnny Jump-ups from Jordan. Now that these have taken off, I'm sure to have them in my garden forever.
