I can see why! It has a beautiful bloom and it must also have good plant habits.
Bee Kind, make the world a better place.

I need to add Hot News to my garden.
Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?

Yeah, Celia. In my case, it would be the humor after whiskey.

I really love Humors of Whiskey! And Hot News is a garden must as Bonnie said.

I found there is an Irish musical piece called Humors of Whiskey. Short and very lively!

probably the source for the name: They use a lot of 'fiddle' tunes.
