I have hostas galore, daylillies (stella, I think- they were here before me), sedum (just plain ol' autum joy), ribbon grass, pulmonarias (trevi fountains, mrs moon, and diana clare), japanese painted fern, sweet wooodruff, astibles peach blossom, and I'm sure more if I took a stroll around the yard. Forgot yellow siberain iris...I don't know what type, since it was here before me, too. I have a lot of bloodroot, but that doesn't take well to digging. We've only been here three years, so a lot of my beds are still fairly immature, or I haven't gotten to them yet.

We had a ton of tadpoles this spring. Thick as thieves all the way around the pond. I'm sure that the majority of them became fish food, though. The bass and bluegills love them, and what the fish don't eat the herons and other birds get. I'm hoping at least a few made it. I guess that's why mother nature gives them the ability to reproduce by the thousands.

My sweety got a great shot of a heron last week...
