Every week something new appears.
I've let a lot of what is probably
weed grow so that I can try and identify it. This garden is packed full of perrenials, but it's also gone "wild" over the last few years from previous homeowners. The tulips, crocuses, and daffodils that have flowered are obvious enough, as were the hyacinths and some other
spring flowers I was able to idenify - with help (thanks to everyone).
Here are some more I've labelled "unknown". Some are obviously meant to be there. Others I suspect are "
weeds". Of course, many so-called
weeds are beneficial herbs, so I don't want to be too hasty in removing them. Plus, they look pretty sometimes
~1~ I think I remember chopping down dead, tall hollow stalks from this spot last fall. I have it elsewhere too.

~5~ This and the above are in a bed with a lot of
lily of the valley (the
lily of the valley being almost hidden now in most places)

The greenery under the
flowers here is really nice - soft, small, needle-like leaves. I thought it was just groundcover at first. We'd love more of this for the garden.
