    The Vinca along the driveway is blooming like crazy.

    The Bleeding Heart is just beginning to bloom. This plant is about 20 years old.

    This shrub is one of the new ones that we put in at the top of the retaining wall. Can't remember what it is. The bloom reminds me of Spirea, but the leaves don't look like one.

    This is the Mediterranean Heather that we put in last year. Haven't had a chance to clean that bed out yet.

    Gosh, you're way ahead of us! Lovely blooms. :D We've got bleeding heart sprouts, just an inch or two above ground. They only came free of the snow a couple of days ago.

    I'm at the same stage as Droopy. My Bleeding Hearts are just a few inches out of the ground too. I really like your dainty Vinca flowers. :-D
