Lovely shots, echoes! Your garden looks very mature and well filled-in. I especially love the brunnera - hosta combo for the gorgeous silvery effect! Do you find that Chelone require a fair bit of water? I had one (I forget the species) years ago that seemed to do well, but I planted a C. obliqua out front last year, and found I had to give it extra water a few times this summer... not what I remembered, and a bit surprising given their Penstemon affinity.

Clematis 'Blue Boy' seems to have forsaken its trellis in favor of rambling through the nannyberry...
