color

The rose campion (Lychnis coronaria) are blooming, as are the coreopsis (zagreb). And the white hydrangea, a good choice for Indiana gardens.

The darker pink spirea remind me again that the blooms strike just the right hue, and the lighter pink ones remind me how disastisfied I am with them, they're too fussy and dowdy, and frankly, don't keep bloom much longer than a week. It will take a lot of work, but the three around my front porch may eventually get moved to farther parts of the yard. I can use the space.
