Thanks pennefeather and Hemophobic for the compliments.

pennefeather, It is so satisfying to reign the garden in periodically. It will be interesting to see it next year at this time.

Hemophobic,
It's actually the blue leaves of the Baptisia I was referring to at this time of year which seem particularly blue next to the grasses( in the previous photo it's the first plant on the left.) I even like the leaves as they dry to a soft charcoal grey against the straw gold of the grasses later in the season.
I do have a late blooming white Baptisia that doesn't even start to send up it's asparagus like stalk until the b. australis is almost finished blooming. So even though the white blooms a month later it still is a spring bloomer.

Here is a photo of the Baptisia where you can really see the powder blue leaves against the switch grass.
