Spring Pink and Blue

I have a little garden on the west side of my front yard. It doesn't get much sun but at this time of year it's in bloom and at its best.


The pink bleeding heart mixed with the delicate cornflower blue brunnera flowers is so pretty. The alpine columbine just started blooming to add some purple to the mix.

Favourite Spring Combo

dicentra spectabilis with brunnera macrophylla 'Hadspen Cream'
One of my favourite combos - bleeding heart and variegated brunnera. The bleeding heart is just starting to open. The two are planted side by side and grow together as they continue to bloom, with the hearts arching above the tiny cornflower blue brunnera flowers. These two like a bit of shade from the afternoon sun.
