Name That Dead Plant, Part III
First of all, I just wanted to let you know that we're still here. It's been a very busy, yet uneventful week. Thus, no posts.

It's vinca ground cover. Just rake the leaves and let it grow - it's very pretty. The tree appears to be a type of maple. It should just blossom forth later in the spring.
Hey, I beat Mandi !
I think its ground elder, not vinca. Vinca doesn't have those white edges. It's also called Bishop's Weed...though the tree is a mystery to me.
In GA. vinca "Sterling Silver" has green leaves edged in white. Maybe a cousin to Bishop's weed.
I vote for varigated vinca, at least that's what we call it in the south, don't we Nonna?
the tree--don't know.
I'll be interested to see what the tree's leaves look like. and it's seeds, too. I like a little mystery. By the way, does your rhododenron have any flower buds yet?
I don't know about buds, but it has little green shoots on the branches--and there are bulbs of some sort coming up all over now. So exciting! (we're visiting!)
