Early April
















Here's a photo of the shade garden, now that it has the geraniums moved to the CN triangle. We put in a Camelia and some heather and some columbine is coming up too! Oh ya, there's that bleeding heart too. That little periwinkle is blooming a bit in front and the bergenia's getting big...no flowers yet though! It's kind of nice to compare photos with the original 'before' photos... I'll have to post a series some time.

I forgot to put up this picture of hellebores up a few months ago, I wasn't sure I liked them before, but this spring I'm completely won over! I like all kinds, except maybe the greenish-flowering ones. Otherwise, hellebores are so beautiful and such a nice early flower. I really like the deep purple/red hellebores (I think Christmas rose is red and lenten rose white?)
