Started working on this area underneath a tree last spring. Common blue violet, eastern columbine and wild geranium make up the groundcover.
I planted Virginia spiderwort too, but the cottontails feasted on them 🐇
And an update on my violet post from last year. They’re filling in this area nicely under the elderberry:
I’m in the burbs so not many deer here…
the urb I’m in also rarely has deer about, which is a plus for gardening without fences!
