Thank you for your time and effort. Watching the seasonal changes and the progression of your garden over the years has been truly enjoyable. My small garden doesn't compare, but watching your garden through the window of the internet has provided motivation to continue to add native plants as the opportunity arises. God bless, and thanks, again.

I bought another one to replace it, and when I went to plant it, I discovered the original Baptisia had survived after all, though much smaller than it once was. I'm happy to say, too, that I finally have Golden Alexanders blooming. Your garden is looking lovely, Sue.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-3082702369815275862017-05-25T06:42:00.294-05:002017-05-25T06:42:00.294-05:00Your garden is lovely!

I love Baptisia too, mine are done blooming and have some big fat seed pods. Love the golden alexander also. It has a nice long bloom time in my garden. Have you ever found black swallowtail caterpillars on yours? Buttonbush is one of my favorites. Just about to bloom here in Georgia.

I also wish the Amsonias bloomed longer, but they make up for it by having nice fall color. I planted a few more non natives this year~ Pineapple sage for the hummers and African basil for the bees.

I have three of the Baptisia Australis - two of them are in the sun and they do wonderfully, although they took 3 years to bloom, and the other is in the shade (planted by the former owner of the house). It never blooms. I'd like to move it but I know their taproots are very deep.

I went to a garden center yesterday to look for wildflowers, and guess what I brought home - Coleus! Beautiful leaves! Great for Foliage Follow-up Day, but...<br />I have an area that Virginia Creeper is trying to take over. If I can find enough energy I want to pull all of them out (there are still plenty at the edge of the woods) and plant more wildflowers.<br />Happy Wildflower Wednesday!Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201714466868118083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-7513229105330850282017-05-24T06:43:24.030-05:002017-05-24T06:43:24.030-05:00We may just be getting monthly posts now but I sur...We may just be getting monthly posts now but I sure do enjoy seeing your gardens!<br /><br />I need to check my Missouri wildflowers book and see what I can add. I do have several natives from seeds in pots and need to find a location for them. Your gardens inspire me to do more natives for the pollinators.gldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645803822598151817noreply@blogger.com
