Wonderful whites. They look so crisp and lovely. It reminds me a bit much of snow though so I tend to avoid it in plants I'm picking out to plant in my garden. I guess if they are already growing in my yard I won't kick them out though!
I may have to get a white bleeding heart though, they're so lovely!
I love this color combination...your garden looks wonderful. I think the driftwood counts for white, I use my rocks as a counterpoint to green!

Thanks Gail .. it is finally filling in .. this May has been really cool and that helps them put on the show ? haha
Cinj .. this one is very young .. I thought about getting the white in the old fashioned Bleeding Heart actually too. I understand your thing about the snow bit .. I'm on the border with that thought too ! haha
That white looks classy. It jumps out at ya. I went and looked at a bunch of heuchera but couldn't force myself to pay the price they were asking. Then maybe it was my mood too. Sometimes I'm in the mood to buy it all and sometimes I can't find nothing I want.
Hi Anna .. I know what you mean .. you really have to be in the mood to go plant hunting .. the garden centers are really slowing down with not much to pick from now .. hard to believe when we haven't even gotten into June yet .. but then again .. market follows demand .. we go nuts in the beginning .. then poop out ? LOL
