Yep, that’s it! Unfortunately, I don’t have any pics to post right now. I just started my garden a couple years ago when we moved into our new home. It is a work in progress! I like using low, maintenance perennials and reseeding annuals—prairie. One of my favorite reseeding annuals is verbena bonarienis. It is a tall, leggy, lavender verbena.
Any suggestions? That purple flower is gorgeous!
Believe it or not, when I took those pics our garden was only three years old. I’m a crazy garden nut and when we moved it took two truckloads to just bring the perennials. Then we discovered our soil was hard clay and had to dig them all up three times to amend the soil so they weren’t drowning. Yes - I am crazy when it comes to gardens. :>/
I’ve heard great things about verbena bonariensis. It’s marginally hardy here in zone 4 but I think I’ll have to give it a try this year.
I love the purples too. The delphiniums came from gracefulgardens.com as live plants. I was highly skeptical of ordering live plants online but they arrived perfectly and came back the past two years very strong. Color me impressed.
