I love being friends with, and related to people who are, gardeners - they are so generous with their knowledge and their plants. Thank you for sharing the story of some of yours!

Hi Sue, You can tell me how the move goes. You should look up Filipendula rubra on-line. You'll find great information (and you'll want one!) ;-)

I love my 2 prairie smoke geums. I may have to move them, as they are near where they are going to repair our curb. I don't know if they will mind being moved in the summer.

I am not familiar with the other plant.

Have fun with your grandson!

Hi Kathleen, Yes. It's nice to be home again. I'm taking time tonight to post again (!) ;-) I'll keep YOU abreast of the QoP progress out there! (I'm indebted.)

Hi Joey! And for the same reason, I will not worry about you! Richness is also found in being content. :-)

Catherine, I'm positive you have friends in your garden, too! And yes, my Aunt is very special (and she's my Mom's sister, so how could she NOT be special??) ;-)

Commonweeder, I hope you can locate this plant. I've even seen it listed in catalogs lately! You will love it. :-)

Dear Anonymous, Thank you for leaving your comment. I'm wondering if I haven't heard about you!! :-) Perhaps the next time I'm "up north" we might meet?

Nutty Gnome, You are delightful and I'm so glad you're visiting me. I love that you sound "English" and you need to know that my Mom and Aunt's father's family came to the US from England. :-)

Ellie Mae, Do you have any helpful hints as to the care of this plant? I'm assuming it's pretty hardy. Have you posted about it?
Thanks for the visit. :-)

It is wonderful to have plants in the garden that some with such a rich history of family and friends. I have a friend who has been recommending Queen of the Prairie to me - not native to our area, but a great plant. It is on my list.
