Oh, they get HUGE! I planted exactly FIVE this season - I’ll have pictures later in the season. Butterflies just go crazy for them, but they do take up a lot of room in a garden bed.

One is in my Veggie garden and the other four are on the edges of our (ill-fated, it seems; Ragweed taking over) Wildflower area.

I was feeling a little BLUE this morning because I don't have cutting gardens established at my 'new' house yet for the GOBS of flowers I'm used to having. SO! I took my scissors and my flat basket and I hiked around The Manse to see what I could come up with and I think the results are part wild, part cultivated, but ALL beautiful.

Purple Cornflower, Coreopsis, Scarlet Runner Bean blooms, Kale, Oregano, Sage & Asparagus fronds.
