I used to deadhead them each spring, but after my count reached 2000, I stopped counting! I finally stopped deadheading all of them as well, and I, too, started seeing seedlings here and there on my property. I must have 4000 of these by now. Here is the downside: In early June, the whole property seems to become a bedraggled mess of flopped-over yellowing foliage. What a sight. I try to go on vacation about that time, LOL. Raydio, I loved your garden poetry and sentiments about the touching beauty of a familiar and sometimes taken-for-granted bloom. I have often felt the same emotions and wonder. Do any of you know the name of this old-time variety? I used to know it, but now that I am past 50 I guess there is no use in learning it again, ha. Toxi |
