Remember the deep orange"Sombrero" Cone Flower I bought at Lowes?

Saw the red version at HD--they had an end-cap full--and when I left work--
there were 2 left...HD's was $8.98. Lowes ewas $7.98.
Planted mine in my A/C bed--where I am slowly gathering nectar plants.
Saw my first Hummingbird 2 days ago on mt Butterfly bush. ait was gone in a flash.

Anyway---my first Glad to bloom. It is 5' tall--see picture.
This is one of many in my WS bed-by the driveway with the BIG pot in the middle.
I guess I should stake this one--and all the others to come...
