Here's another underplanting that I just did for a butterfly. Since the Butterfly is in full shade it's almost white most of the year except in the spring. So I tried to echo the white in the plantings with the white dichondra and the variegated pteris. Lemon button fern and a red carex along with some hellebore are doing well here. I've over planted though and am slowly moving things other places.

The pteris has grown and is now about 2 and a half feet tall and it will get to about 3 here.
