Last one for this morning - Wild Ginger (Asarum) from the woods. I was also fortunate to find one small specimen of Polypody Fern growing in a clump of moss - you can barely see it to the left of the Ginger. When you can find them, they're always growing on the rocks so I carefully placed it over the end of the long rock behind the Ginger and will keep my fingers crossed!

Speaking of the wind - we have a stand of Black Bamboo to the left of this area and I had been looking at the dead leaves wondering why they hadn't fallen off yet this year? After I got everything planted and took a break I came back for pictures and found the wind was finally taking care of the dead leaves - they were all over the path and moss! Looks like there will be a lot of spring clean up every year to keep this path clear :(
