Peeking out

This little gnome was peeking out at me from behind the front steps.

Ornaments around the yard . . .

The garden gnome - another view

Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how does your garden grow?

This is one of our garden gnomes. 

We have lots of bleeding hearts (dicentra spectabills) in our yard.  Every few years I dig them up, divide them and start more plantings.  My neighbor admired them so much that I gave her several plants for her yard.
These are coral bells (heuchera micrantha).   I also divide these and plant them here and there.
This is a lily of the valley (convallaria majalis).  Over the years, I have not had much luck with them.  Finally I have a few plants that are starting to survive.
Hosta is another plant that thrives in our yard.  I have to divide these every few years, too.
