Lupines, irises, peonies, and a couple allium for good measure in my neighbor's garden--she always puts on a good show for Memorial Day :)

I agree with all of the above.

Just spoke with our neighbor, Jackie, on the phone. She was thrilled to see her garden as a site banner. Seemed flattered with the recognition (if I can put words in her mouth). Gardens aside, we're lucky to have her and he family as friends!! Hurray!
