Camellia, Japanese maple, spirea, Golden Euonymous, Kaleidoscope Abelia. I like color in the garden and use shrubbery to get it. In the winter we have different evergreens to give us structure and color.
Here are two new daylily beds built for doubles. Tets went in the far end and dips on the upper end. We divide our daylilies in beds according to ploidy for hybridizing.
A view from a different angle. The tree to the left is a Deodora Cedar.

Deciduous Azaleas. We really like them. They put on a show in April. We have about 25 more in gallon pots to be planted within a couple of months, I hope. We have another series of terraced walls to be built north of where all these pictures were taken..
More Deciduous Azaleas.
White Deciduous Azalea
Evergreen azaleas & mahonias, probably taken late April. The mahonias bloomed in February and the clusters of grape berries are evident.
Butterfly Japanese Maple
Homestead Verbena This verbena puts on a show and usually lives through only one winter here if not too cold.
Pink Columbine Columbine freely sows here and comes up in nearby daylily beds. If left in the beds, the columbine plants can smother out daylilies at times. They come up in pathways too. I have had to resort to digging them up and throwing them away. It pains me to do that. I should take the time now to move any small ones that are in the beds and pathways. I could pot them up for planting later or sell at club plant sales. They are so pretty when they bloom.
Dutch Iris, one of several colors.
The only name I know is "Butter And Eggs". It is one of those pass-a-long plants that an elderly lady gave me years ago.
