I have two kinds of Turk's caps now. One is still too small to bloom. It was a gift from a DG'er in Houston. She sent me a load of cuttings and boy did they root.

I rescued the small Turk's caps which I have nine of growing alongside my driveway. I didn't even know what they were when I got them. They were in a bucket and had grown through the bucket into the ground beneath them. They were on a lot that my DH's brother owned. It had been a homestead, but was just a vacant lot now (except for all the wonderful flowerific finds there). When I had an RU at my house the plants were just starting to bloom. Josephine told me what they were. Of course I love them as well as all my other goodies. They aren't blooming yet, but here is a photo of a bloom from last year.
