in this picture are Thalictrum and German Iris. To satisfy the eyes, three or four weeks later Jap Iris and stately 
Lilies come into bloom. And for the last scene on this stage these flowers will give way to Chrysanthemums and 
Hardy Asters, with Liatris, Phlox, Hemerocallis Lilies mid others to fill the interim.
