Thanks Jerry, coming from you that means a lot!!!
Mike, those are Dahlias. When I got them home the wife asked me what they were and I said I didn't know, but they are pretty so I got them! LOL.....I'm horrible with names, but know what I like when I see it!

The Columbine is shot now too. That pic was a week ago, and she didn't age well!
hahaha...funny you should mention a nice big pond there as I was just telling the DW the other day that if we removed a couple of trees along the side it would be the PERFECT spot for a big pond!!! hahaha
The bleeding hearts grow like crazy here. Actually need to get rid of some by next year because one in particular is trying to take over a garden. I forsee doing some major pruning.
