Delphinium - taller than ever!

Finally!
I can say I have some really nice, tall Delphinium in my garden.
All mostly blue... but it's my favorite color. So...

Here's the bunch!

And some close-ups!

IRIS

I've always been amazed with the color variety in the Iris world.
And the fragrance...

Here's the tall ones

Just green... or is it ?

I guess people (myself included) usually focus on the blooms. We always seem to take pictures of plants when they are in bloom or just the bloom.
Having a bit more free time in the garden, I also looked beyond the colorful, fragrant, bee-attracting flowers and searched for some nice green.
Here's just some of the green I found interesting.

Saxifraga stolonifera

??? no IDea

Lilium regale ???

Asarum europaeum

Ginkgo biloba

Fritillaria imperialis

I've got the orange one, and the yellow one... I need a red one!
As I know, there's only 3 colors. One more and I got them all...

Some people think it's a fussy one, but it seems to do fine in my garden. Well, one big bulb decided not to show up this spring. Eaten up? Rotten? No idea.

FRITILLARIA IMPERIALIS

Thousands of bleeding hearts

This is just getting better and better each spring.
I've got two plants, but this one is the one doing really great.
Literally thousands of cute little pink/white hearts.
As I noticed in the past years, it doesn't produce seeds. No idea why.

DICENTRA SPECTABILIS

First Iris(es) to bloom ... almost

I was gonna say these are the first Irises to bloom,but I just remembered abut the small blue reticulata irises which bloomed before March 1st.
Well, OK ... these bloom now, a month later.
But they are both fragrant. Differently! I had to lie down on on the ground to get close to the blooms. They are both dwarf varieties, the purple one really small!

Spring babies

Spring is not only about a whole bunch of flowers blooming.
There's a lot of baby animals around. What could be cuter?
