tx-this one I started from a cutting taken from my dad's neighbor's bush. I grew up next door to them and they have several native plants in their yard. (The lady was my Girl Scout leader for about 6 years!) She and her husband generously welcomed me to take cuttings. I have had several volunteers from this plant and usually find them early spring or even in the fall in other places in my yard thanks to the birds.

Even the butterflies are enjoying the sunflowers!

My petunias from Josephine are starting to bloom.

The first Cowpen Daisy bloom of the year. I really love these happy flowers.
