Dancing Oaks...Just a Few More Photos

IF YOU DON'T MIND, I thought I'd share a few more photos from my jaunt through the garden paths and greenhouse aisles of Dancing Oaks.

I took this photo in the tropical greenhouse. I'm not sure, but this could be a Fuchsia. 


I just love these guys creeping over the rocky edge. 

Isn't this little thing a cutie pie? 


These little Shooting Stars were in a trough hiding under a Japanese Maple. 

I don't know why I never think to write anything down. I'm guessing this is an
Agave, right, Loree? 

Astrantia--this is for you, Scott. I know you said you couldn't make it
to Dancing Oaks so here you go. 

A pretty bi-colored Iris hidden within the Pulmonaria. 

The upper ponds. 

I'm wondering if this is Dictamnus or Gas Plant before the flowers have opened.
Does anyone know? 

I'm not positive but this might be a Darmera peltata. The leaves on mine are slightly different so I'm not sure.

A tree peony, past its prime but still pretty.

Cool pots!

I love Dogwood blossoms. These were really small and oh so delicate. 

Finally, can anyone ID this plant? The tag below is for a neighboring one.
I looks a lot like a hardy geranium but, I'm not sure and Fred was otherwise occupied thanks
to a hefty turnout that day.
Fortunately, there is a lot going on in my own garden these days. The roses and honeysuckles are beginning to bloom and the fragrance is wonderful. I'll probably post photos next time, unless I get strong-armed into going to another nursery, which is highly likely since I'm such a sucker.
