These orange cosmos are such great nectar plants that I can't hardly pull them out, but I've been forced too. They have taken over!! When we started getting some high temps and lots of mosquitoes I didn't spend much time in my front bed. After a few weeks I looked out and realized I had nothing but cosmos! This pic is after I pulled out 2 lawn sacks full of orange cosmos and red salvias!! (I took a before pic but my camera freaked out and I lost the pic)

I uncovered lots of Rudbeckia's (yay) a couple Porterweed's and a few Caryopteris. You can't see any of them tho! I'm pretty much stuck with the orange because it makes the butterflies happy! :)
