I like the idea of asparagus in the border - I may give it a try. This August/September I plan to take everything out of this bed to divide, re-arrange and refine the space. It's so overgrown you cannot see what's there.

I'm not very knowledgeable about dicentra. I added one to my shade garden this spring and it seems to still be OK, but I'll be watching it to make sure it doesn't get too dry.

The weather here has been perfect this spring. Today is the first really hot day and I just watered a large bed of sun coleus that was drooping. I can't believe the ground is dry - we had an inch of rain two days ago - so I'll probably be watering the border this afternoon too!
