This is a mixed border of herbs and perennials.  The honeysuckle has feverfew at its feet, and the crocosmia has lemon balm in front of it as a support plant.  This view is from the yard side, and I have not yet cleaned up the herb garden side.

It's nice to be able to get out in the garden in January, although I do find after a couple hours my fingers get a bit numb.  After clearing out all the dead stalks and weeds, I was happy to find lots of perennials just starting to poke their heads through the soil.  I also saw a couple robins and the aspen grove was alive with birdsong (unfortunately it was the dreaded starlings, but they do make a lovely racket).
