Oh boy lots of pretty pics. I do hope we will see some of Al's beauties too. I can't wait to see them for real this season. Hoping all the new ones from last year return. The new resident that showed up late last summer could be a problem. I may have to put chicken wire around them all so the ground hog doesn't wipe them out before they can get going. These are tough plants and my only problem is getting them through the first year because of critters and the occasional nibble of flowers by squirrels. They all seem to leave them alone after they are established or a little later in the season when other goodies are available to munch on. Here is a pic of the evidence left by one squirrel.
