The 2011 version of the Monet Vision is beginning to take shape. The recent spell of high temperatures combined with the rain has made the garden “pop.”
Last year, I let the perennials do all the work. I didn’t spend a nickel on annuals. This year is the opposite, I am planting purchased material in colors I want to see, and spreading seed to fill in. Here are a few photos from which you may form an impression.

Several varieties of Heuchera blend with hostas
The Clematis is barely showing.
This show is to continue all summer long.

Lovely job, Joe. A work of art! Well done.
I’m glad you liked it. The Vision gets better with age, stay tuned for more.
Beautiful!
