Shade Bed Tour & Violas


These dicentra's are supposed to die back by now, I thought, but they both seem to be putting out new growth. I don't mind!
I really love how the new growth is lighter green, with smaller leaves. It just adds dimension to the plant.

These hostas must like their new home--they're flowering already.
Quite lovely. 

 So I didn't kill off the brunnera (so glad!)
We've got a few new little leaves coming up.
I'll have to go back and clip off the big leaves that are too far gone to save, now that I'm sure it's surviving okay.

And what can I say more about VIOLAS?
Other than, I think they're fantastic, and they are some of my favorite flowers.
Oh, and they keep showing up in the most unexpected places.

 Like, in the lawn.
Not moving them!

Here's another one growing amongst the grass.
I've spotted at least 3 or 4.  

And here's one way over on the slope, by the woodland hyacinth.
They can populate whatever ground they want to. I don't mind a bit!
