I have resisted Custard Candy so far, but I did order a few (5) others..let the addiction begin!!

of course, I've ordered other things. too. lilies & other bulbs coming in the fall, some iris, echinacea, and a clematis should be here in a day or 2, planted a couple of hosta earlier this week, still working on an order of herb plants from Mountain Valley. oh, and the aforementioned helenium that followed me home from the nursery yesterday had friends, some lamb's ear, guara, joe pye weed, hens 'n chicks, 3 half-price house plants AND an absolutely beautiful specimen Japanese pieris 'Mountain Fire' (it wasn't a great bargain - 10% off, but what the heck).
