I have hostas, some painted fern, hardy geranium and columbine (and weeds). The columbine is just taking over! It's practically like groundcover how quickly it spreads and I'm not sure what to do about that. In fact, it reseeded everywhere but where I wanted it to. I took some seeds last year and spread them under a honeysuckle that borders the bed, but they didn't sprout at all. The geranium, however, isn't looking so good. It's quite limp and lays on the ground. I desprately need to mulch, but does it need some type of plant food or other boost? Or is it normal for it to look that way this early in the season?

Thanks in advance!
