Barrenwort (Epimedium) – three types
Forget-Me Not (Myosotis)

Columbine (Aquilegia) (Hybrids)
Leaves of Peony and Japanese Red Maple (Acer palmatum)
Leaves of Bugbane Black Negligee (Actaea simplex) and Raspberry (Rubus)
Purple Iris, and Dahlias (corms overwintered in my basement, sprouted and waiting to be planted)
Jacobs Ladder (Polemonium,) White Trillium amongst Threadleaf Coreopsis (Coreopsis Verticillata,) and Solomon’s Seal (Polygonatum)
Primrose, or Primula. Love her ruffled leaves!
