(Semi) evergreen plants


Even in the winter, some of the perennials remain at least party evergreen, although they are still basically dormant.  Here are a few of the (semi) evergreen flowering plants in the garden over this past weekend.  The leaves around them provide some insulation, plus I was a little lazy when it came to raking this fall!

 Coral bells (Heuchera)


Pachysandra


 Lamb's ear (Stachys byzantina)



 Yellow Archangel (Lamiastrum galeobdolon)


Deadnettle (Lamium species)

I have been shocked how green so many of these plants have stayed .. until the snow has covered them .. it is great to see them though isn't it ? Lamb's Ear is such a tactile plant .. old fashioned but too loveable to not have in a garden : )
The garden always has a tiny surprise waiting for us ! wink wink
