Dogtooth Violets

Had to post this.  They are so beautiful this time of year.  The ground cover is the native Oxalis.  The fern is
the native Sword Fern.  I'm pretty sure I bought it as a bulb but couldn't find it in my catalog.  As you can see they tolerate shade  and roots of the trees.  Great combination.  The foliage dies off like most bulbs.  I have Hostas to follow up the next season interest.   Yummy!  Have fun with it.
