Of course you are both correct. I just listed what is growing wild here now and it is lovely. This Chamisa is growing right at the end of one of our daylily beds. It is about six feet wide.
Then, to top it off, here is a FFO, five days after our average date of first frost on a scape I had no hope for with our evening lows below fifty for the past couple of weeks.
