Nasturtium and more seed buying

Woke up this morning and saw that my first nasturtium was in bloom. I gave my brother a pot of them as well but although he has flower heads, he has no blooms yet. i was surprised that they looked kind like a scythe in profile, an odd little guy.

we're supposed to do work outside building a patio-ish type area by the shade section i have the hosta in so of course i have plans of sprucing it up with some plantlife action. so i was on park seed for a while looking at some perennials i could put in there. i dont want to bother with annuals b/c i dont plan on being in there maintaining and planting unless it involves dividing a huge hosta or something. besides, what annuals are shade anyhow? so of course i saw too many sunny ones i wanted to i had to get some of them too... i have no restraint. most if not all are heat tolerant, so i'll be cool there.

--------------------
shade perennials:  these will go along with several hostas eventually. i need to add a "pop" of another color tho
--------------------

--------------------------------
Sunny Perennials :   i have no idea where to put these but i have to have them, especially the stork's bill
--------------------------------

the nice thing about the shade ones is that if i can get them all going they will bloom at different times of the year. plus i plan on trying to propogate the begonia i already have to add in there.

Bergenia Redstart - late winter to early spring
Bergenia rose - early/mid spring
Begonia - late spring - early summer
Astilbe - mid/late summer
Toad lilly - fall

i have no idea what happened to the Lily of the Valley and the Astilbe roots. i think the soil in there is much too poor. i think i'll start them in pots and then transplant them next time. i'm going to have to seriously alter the soil there or transplant a different soil all together. the lily is a spring bloomer too. i forget when the hosta puts out it's purple flowers tho.
we'll see how many seeds i actually get to start and how many do well. with the weather the way it is, germination should be easy i would think, but i would be concerned about enough strong root development to survive the next winter... we'll see i suppose. have to remember to water them and not let them dry out. maybe i'll find something to make a SIP planter out of that has enough surface area and is shallow enough to start seeds in...
