Clusiana tulips ‘Cynthia’.  They close up when the sunlight starts to fade.  When they are open they are yellow.  When they are closed they are pink.  I like these little pink spears.

Epimediums are a terrific groundcover.  Here they are growing right at the base of a black walnut.  They spread slow but steady.

Solomon’s Seal.  A steady spreader.  I started with 4 plants 3 years ago.
