Clint, I love that phlox with the painted fern- the way the veins of the fern pick up the color of the eyes of the phlox is wonderful!

I particularly love color echos with blooms and foliage, and snapped a couple of shots this morning I'm really pleased with:

Thanks, everyone!

Polly, I was just thinking of you today! I noticed this morning Siberian Irises are starting to bud, and realized I hadn't seen your posts lately. Glad to hear from you! That columbine is the native A. canadensis.

Some nice color echos going on in the purple garden, I'll work on getting some more pics.
