Late spring flowers

The dianthus have done quite well!


The campanulas. The white one is ridiculously tall and leans over the lawn. I like it anyway.

Purple rhodie. The flowers are quite small, but there are many of them.

Scraggly rhodie has very pretty blossoms.



Found Henderson's Shooting Star, a native wildflower, at Molbak's. This one is doing well.










This one is doing less well. The leaves, which typically lay at the surface, immediately did this. I'm guessing that means that the plant isn't exactly getting any energy from photsyntehsis.  Hope the roots survive to maybe grow again next year?

Hardy Geranium - Patricia has quickly gone absolutely rampant under the vine maple. The flowers are up in the branches already. There's an Album there too, not blooming yet, and a globe allium in back to the left. The other geranium mourning widow is in the back to the right.

 Alliums like the tomato cage.

The two in back were more under the eaves and, I think, didn't get enough water.

Planted some green beans in line with the alliums that did better -- hope they grow!
