HolleyGarden, ...Thanks everyone for your comments.<br /><br />HolleyGarden, I am so glad to have your recommendation of Carefree Beauty rose. You know lots more about roses than I do.<br /><br />Karin, I was lucky enough to find the Black Snakeroot at my local nursery. I believe the plant is a Canadian native. It self-seeds and I never know where it will turn up. It does well in shade, so I like it for that reason.<br /><br />Bren, You were asking about my geraniums. I have two kinds of burgundy geraniums. I have a dark burgundy one with burgundy accents on the leaves. I believe this to be Geranium phaeum 'Samobor'. The other one which looks pretty identical, but has plain green leaves I believe is Geranium phaeum ' Chocolate chip'.<br /><br />Alistair, Thanks so much for the I.D.

Your pictures are lovely by the way. <br /><br />Our Loretta lets us know when the storms will arrive, usually about 1o minutes before the warnings crawl across the bottom of the TV screen. She paces, quivers and drools, and will stay that way until well after all threats have passed.Leshttp://atidewatergardener.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-10383147307624283552011-06-09T11:48:55.231-07:002011-06-09T11:48:55.231-07:00What a treat to walk through your garden.

The bleeding hearts have always been a favorite of mine. Great shots!! I agree, pretty weed. We have a couple around here that are pretty as well (weeds). The arbor shot is perfect. Perfect. I love shots with gates/ arbors etc. in them.
