Gold Plus

Still on the golden theme, here is physocarpus opulifolius 'Angel Gold' commonly called Ninebark because of the peeling bark of mature trees. Native of north America. This one is planted nearby two other forms, one with green leaves, the other, 'Diablo' with deep purple/black. 'Angel Gold is surrounded by forget-me-not and lysImachia 'Firecracker'. Unidentified plant in the foreground - I am working on it.

Then heuchera 'Limelight', one of several lime-leaved heuchera.

Finally, to mark that I finished digging over the bed we call Hidcote, here is the west end, blue cornflower on front of deutzias. Sweet peas and cosmos are about to be planted. Bearded irises and iris siberica are doing very well - pictures in a few days when they break flower.
