Ever since my Son's pet snake ( if you can call a snake a pet) disappeared last year, I am leary of anything that moves. Sharon, Jill is right, That is tradescantia. Here we call if spiderwort. It is a native wildflower and it does bloom all summer and spreads a lot. Here it even grows right up to the salt marsh. i have a lot of it and it has spread quite a lot. I am thinking about planting it next to my house in the back yard and see if it survives where everything else seems to want to die. We started the re-design yesterday. I was really worried about moving everything then because some of my daylilies still had buds and all of my hardy hibiscus had buds, but after we let the sprinkler run on them for a couple of hours, they look great. I got up this morning and there are 3 dinnerplate size southern belles strutting their stuff. Hubby is out working now, but I am not going out until later this afternoon. I have some packaging to do and some paperwork. ( when it is this hot, I can find all kinds of things to keep me indoors. LOL) I do need to get out and collect some seeds. But that will happen this afternoon. I may keep the rest of my daylily seedlings to fill in a couple more spots that we have made up. I want to see them bloom anyway, hubby says that is just an excuse, but I think it is valid. Here is a picture of some stella de oro daylilies in the midst of a big pile of spiderwort, let me know if it is the same plant. In the meantime, I hope everyone else has a wonderful day. I will check in on you later. |
