Here is my new planting that Potemup helped me with.

I ended up with five fingered fern (which you can't see here), the Pteris - it's the tallest plant - doesn't look much like a fern, some lemon button ferns, red carex that likes the shade and will show up better when the ground cover spreads, a yellow green sedum, and white dicondra - which I know that I'll have to keep after. And finally quite a few hellebores. They are seedlings from a hybridizer and so I don't know what they'll look like and I don't anticipate blooms for a couple of years. It will be fun to see. The white dicondra is supposed to be difficult. We'll see how it goes.

Anyway - fun with ferns, but don't stop there!
