Woodland Spring Flowers

Bleeding hearts are an excellent choice for a shade garden and my "Alba's' seem to be doing just fine outside my woodland shade garden.

They seem to have migrated across the grass to the sunny side and now join some columbine and California poppies.

  The stem is like a necklace of tight little hearts, each one opening consecutively. So delicate they are, I just love them.     Moving into the shade garden we find 2 more lovely white spring flowers. The first of course is the every popular Lily of the Valley:

 And of course it wouldn't be spring without the Soloman's Seal beginning their bloom. The arching stems add an exotic touch to the shady garden, and the little white flowers dangle under the leaves like jewels.
