- Moss phlox is missing in action. I trimmed them all the way back last year in the fear that once dried, the needle leaves might be sharp and hurt Baby Martini. Its spot is currently occupied by a succulent recently transplanted from the deck planter (to make room for more herbs next to the kitchen this year.
- Cranesbill geranium kind of died last year. I planted an annual afterward but its spot is taken over by forget-me-not this spring.
- Mistake from "the early years"; we followed the instruction on the bag to space the bulbs but didn't realize this type (Darwin?) of tulips don't multiply much and they stay tall. I managed to move some along the border to group next to the forget-me-not. They look less awkward this year.
- This brings up another issue. Popsicle tulips (around the Japanese maple, bloom is gone) multiply every year so it gets really crowded around the J maple. Have to thin them out this year or next.
