More spring pics...

Check out this great sedum album 'bella di'inverno' (if I remember right...). Isn't is colorful?! By id sumemr it will be solid green again, but the spring colors are so festive.


Equally pretty is this pink pulmonaria. Great foliage and the slugs and deer both leave it be.


Pale blue grape hyacinths - a favorite.


And check out these crazy fritillarias. So fun! Moles supposedly hate them and sure enough, there's been no moles in this bed for the past three years. Plus they must love our climate and soil as they are multiplying like crazy.


And here's what I did with that bed with the giant boulder. Rock on the top and planted around it. Will see how it goes. Shallow rooted stuff and 10-15" of dirt below most of them.
