What is flowering in your gardens?

I'm jealous of your bloodroot. I've never seen such a pretty example. Nicely done lass! LOL!

Your photography is superb. Mine is not but here it is anyway.
You have a wonderful garden and I bet it keeps you busy. I'd love to have a shade garden this size. Oh well at least I can grow a wide range of plants and I manage to have something in flower every day of the year. Enjoy!
It's really not that big...

What is the red bloomer with the dark stems that you said "yes in the shade" about? Maybe if I could see the leaves better I would know . . . .
It is actually bright orange...an Exbury Azalea.
I do like tiarellas with green leaves in dark shade. They really show up.
Jack Frost is one of THE best plants - it's fabulous!
Pink Sea Grass is another new one on me. This shady forum is so cool. Is this plant a durable grower. It looks fragile, water sensitive . . . .

No, it's pretty tough. It can grow in full sun too.

I can grow a lot of sun plants in the shade with no problem but it may be because of my high zone.
These are viola Penny Lane. They are great performers and are available online from Graceful Gardens.
Wow that lily of the valley is gorgeous - I have the ordinary sort and it is spreading all over. It is so lovely though I don't mind.
I wish this one would spread faster so I could add it to different places in the garden. As it is, it's a very slow grower.
I already put it in my "plants to get" folder! Great voliage - but also a super picture.
Don't you love the smell of lily of the valley? The fragrance just fills the air.
