Jim, the Bromeliad photo is outstanding! Everything looks so lush, like a Florida Botanic garden.....
Kathy, the tour must have been a dreamy walk in a Massachusetts Botanic Garden!
I'd love to see both! Smiling

Me too! Kathy, is that Campanula a thug in your zone? The cultivar I have tries to take over the whole garden every spring. Luckily, it's easy to pull out, once the bees are gone.

The other campanula clump died and that is a very small clump which i hope becomes a mat. I do have an inordinate amount of glomerata though.

Thanks, everyone!
These are the back borders, where the voles were. I seeded most of it...evidence that they are under control for the moment, anyways.
