And this last one is a portion of the dark blue viola above...enlarged and softened.

And all the seedlings in the garden - the main raised bed we use for vegetables.  Along the left and middle column (they're divided by string) are tons of little broccoli rabe plants.  They'll be harvested relatively early, and once they're out, the tomatoes and eggplant and other things will go in. 

But in the left column, we also now have red leaf lettuce, chervil, pak choi, and, I think, arugula.  And green lettuce.  I think that's everything.

And now, around to the front of the house...

Tons and tons of hostas coming up.  I think  I might need to separate them at the end of the season this year.

And finally, in the window box closest to our back door...some creeping thyme...
