My Salvia 'May Night' is blooming too. Catmint, are you saying that May Night is better than Caradonna? For some reason, I heard the opposite.

Did my own role call this evening. Overcast skies make for great photographs!

1. My yellow NOID Iris. SO CLOSE!
2. Native honeysuckle. About half my buds are "broomsticks" covered in aphids. I'm trying to restrain myself because I heard hummingbirds eat aphids. Hurry up and find them, Hummers!
3. Hosta 'Guacamole'. Holey Moley she's getting big....
4. Hosta 'Limey Lisa' (foreground), and 'Kabitan' in the back.
5. Heuchera 'Purple Palace' with the limey hostas in the background
