Fritillaria, Primroses and Wood Sorrell
Dicentra and Comfrey mingle
Wood Sorrel under the shrubs
Narcissus in the wrong place but no weed obviously!
Violets on the bank
Bluebells still to come out!

A lovely area and display,Neellan..I love this time of year too,The Wood Sorrel and violets are so pretty,and how nice to have an area where they can just do their own thing..I moved my white Dicentra to a shadier place too,and it suits it much better. I think the daff is saying,'look at me ':o) xx

We are all of the same mind, I have my shady area at the bottom of my garden, I too like the mingling and allow the plants to do their own thing for the majority of the time, they get a trim and tidy when it becomes clogged and they are in danger of choking each other, I have never accepted pristine when it comes to gardening and I'm too flipping old to change my ways now, saying that we are all different and I can and do admire others ways....

Thank you Pam, I love the wild flowers and am pleased they do their own thing here and there, my garden is on a hillside the bank to the top level is a mass of violets and soon cowslips and blubells too :o)
Thank you Bloomer they all seem to thrive under the shrubs and trees or on the south facing bank and appear without fail with little help from me I may add, I agree the lonely Daff/Narcissi, whichever, is certainly a showoff love it but no idea how it got there! :o)
Thank you Lincslass mine are scattered throughout my garden, nearly all my plants are hardy annuals, shrubs or trees, (apart from Cosmos and Californian Poppy seeds) they are left to their own devices just tidying, weeding, feeding and watering when necessary! :o)
Thank you for liking Peterathome and Resi :o)

Neellan I just love this time of year when all these little gems wake up and bring us such joy, a friend gave me a little clump of wood sorrel a couple of years ago and now to my joy I have quite a few little patches of it around the shadier parts of the garden.

Thank you Stroller I agree, something new to see everyday, wood sorrel is such delicate ground cover too, I welcome it wherever it appears :o)

Spring is great isn't it? My favourite of these pics is the wood sorrel, I've always loved it.
Your mixed border in the first pic is splendid too, especially with the little fritillaries.
