My favourite bed. Moist shade.

Paeonia Mlokosewitchii

I love the tapestry effect as the foliage and flowers knit together at this time of year. I'm ruthles with the bluebells: as soon as the lowers fade, I rip them out with all their leaves. But they still come back every year.

Clematis alpina

This is a newly planted bed, in a shady spot under a lilac tree. It's dry shade so I'll have to keep this watered all summer.

You clearly have an eye for design, Dandelion.  The bed and the plants are all gorgeous and I love the colour mixes.   ;D
