My first thought was Dicentra scandens but then I read your wife hates
yellow which is a shame so how about Dicentra scandens Pink Heart, if you
can find it. Has orchid pink blossoms and is hardy


Actually, it's not that. She likes to keep yellow at a distance,
though I have never quite got to the reason. I do sympathise with
her view that spring in the UK is very yellow, because of the
common and very assertive yellow plants (such as the forsythia
next door, daffodils and more).

Dicentra scandens Pink Heart looks interesting for somewhere else,
If I can find it :-(
