The white shooting stars, have incredibly short stems. Perhaps the are waiting for the sun to grow taller.
The pink shooting stars seem to be loving the rain. 
My 'Jack Frost' Brunnera has beautiful little blue flowers, and such lovely leaves 
Ed got a perfect shot of this bleeding heart. The weeds have not been pulled, but at least they are out of focus.
Between the attractive leaves and the lacy flowers this 'Sugar and Spice' Tiarella is a delight.
There are years when we think we have the upper hand in the garden. Things get planted on time. Weeds get pulled . For the most part the garden bends to our wishes. This is not one of those years. Mother Nature is in control and we are painfully aware of it. Everything is growing in response to the daily rain, especially the weeds and the lawn. We did get a little sun today. You'll have to excuse me now, I have wet garden clothes to launder.
