Love cloudy days for taking pictures.
#1. Hostas in Japanese Garden
#2. Lysamachia ground cover in section of Japanese garden. This was one of those \"accidents\" several years ago. I put a plant on a little mound in an area of black rock chunks as an annual not realizing that it would act as a perennial here. It is very invasive but is quite well confined here and acts as a very effective control for other weeds. Every winter the deer dig through the snow and forage on it and in the spring it looks like there is nothing left. But the roots are still there and it makes an awesome colour contrast to everything else
#3. I believe this is a German iris in front and Solomons Seal behind it to the left and more Hostas in the Japanese Garden
#4. With the staining completed this week I finally had time to clean up some very neglected areas of the yard. The bog at the back entrance to the Japanese garden now looks like someone loves it again!!!
#5. Lone iris in the picket fence garden off the back deck
