perennials budding

Milkweed. I think they will bloom this year!

'Caradonna' salvia is blooming - lovely purplish blue tall spikes

Only on this attempt at a closeup did I noticed what looks like spider mite webbing on the flowers. Ugh.

Borage in the front is about ready to bloom

Here's all the ones I transplanted to the other spot-

a few of these about to flower too, though they are much smaller

I really like the bleeding hearts, would like to have more in other areas of the yard-

and just found some setting seed!

Admiring the bunnera

Lady's mantle is getting ready to bloom-

Peony buds look just about to bust open
