  1. I expected the Mullein to be yellow. Ours are - though there may be pink ones I just haven't seen.
    And Spiderwort is called something else over here but I can't recall what. Currently brain dead.

  3. SS - Yes, the yellow kind grows at the sides of roads over here... but the pink kind I found at the nursery. Must be a special kind.

    Jeanne - Glad to share! Any ideas on why my foxgloves have gone all weird?

  4. Mullein - I love that name. Sort of mediaval-y and ladies bedstraw-ish.
