I'm finding that's more often the case with native perennials--particularly because the rabbits snack on them when they're small. Which, ultimately, I guess could help the plant a bit because it directs the growth to the roots if it doesn't kill the plant. Anyway, this is a beautiful plant. :)Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-68616356552001600062016-10-20T13:53:46.881-05:002016-10-20T13:53:46.881-05:00I haven't seen many pollinators on it but mayb...I haven't seen many pollinators on it but maybe next year or I need to plant them in different locations.Shirleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-11154207757922516072016-10-20T13:51:31.452-05:002016-10-20T13:51:31.452-05:00A good garden requires patience or at least it tea...A good garden requires patience or at least it teaches patience.Shirleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-6243068357566389282016-10-20T11:54:35.440-05:002016-10-20T11:54:35.440-05:00Great post, Shirley.
