Joy,
I’m happy someone beside me is using that photo as a background. Glad you liked it.

My Joe is squeezed in too. It decided to pick a fight with the Yellow Flag Iris and found a worthy opponent.

Carol,
I deleted your email address so it will not be harvested by spam bots :)

There’s always room for a rock. Next trip is only the cats and some odds and ends so I’ll have plenty of room.

I grew it when we lived in a suburb to the West of Chicago. Joe Pye Weed spread to fill the area I had cultivated but I never had to chop it back at all... the area drained quickly so it needed supplemental watering. We didn't have any areas that stayed moist in that garden and we sure don't have any areas that stay moist here in Texas!

Annie,
…and may I introduce to you the stately Joe PyeWeed fresh out of the swamp :) Lucky I have a spot. The wild ones are so tall and aggressive they belong in the wild borders where any attempt to escape would be met by the mad mower.

…I should send you a Box of Rain
