Last weekend I divided all my coneflowers. Now most are dying. They've had plenty of water and sun, but they just haven't survived the stress. I looked at Logan's, but I just couldn't stand paying $12 each for purple coneflowers. I've always gotten them from friends. I'm going to put some bee balm in that bed. I might have to get other new plants as well.
I bought some water hyacinths for our pond. The Logan's folks highly recommended them. I then read some very negative reviews. Apparently they can be very invasive. I think this just applies to large bodies of water, not our little pond. Also, in warmer areas they are perennials, while they are annuals here. Guess I'll have to keep an eye on them. They do bloom, shade, oxygenate and float. Sound perfect!
Irises are finally blooming.
