Tam and Neal, you are right ... it's
Monarda lambada. Probably why you haven't heard of it, Neal. LOL. Apparently, I had Salvia on the brain today. Sorry, my bad.
Our grass is starting to turn brown and crunchy too, Tam. I'm already a bit weary of toting buckets of water.
Neal, that Monarda lambada is a perennial. Tam sent it to me. I believe it was winter sown?
I debated on the Dahlia but this one seems to be loving the current summer weather so far.
Peppermint Twist phlox has yet to bloom for me here. Not sure why but probably the weather again.
Speaking of Morning Glories, there is a white mg that is growing wild around the corner. It has grown up a telphone pole clear to the top and is now headed down the wires. I smile every time I drive by it.
