Well, early June has come and all but 'Wheee!' are fully unfurled. Here are some pics. Many of these will be uncropped because the plants around the featured plant look nice IMHO.
It's still a bit early to pull out my crocus and tulip foliage; so forgive the messy gardens.

'Allegan Fog'

'Alligator Shoes'

'Ann Kulpa' - new last week from Rona where I don't generally buy hostas. Looks healthy, but I'll watch it.

'Allan P. McConnell' - is used here as a border along my driveway.

'Avalanche' is feeling the effects of more sun than previously due to Ash trees that were removed down the street. We are badly affected by Emerald Ash Borer.

'Bell Ringer' - stabilized version of 'Liberty Bell'

'Blue Cadet' is gradually being made into a border in this dark corner where I've tried and failed with many hostas. The blue ones seem to do OK. This also shows 'Frances Williams' which seems to do OK, but not wonderfully well in this location.
