My browser cannot connect to that. Sad

Anyway, I will find somewhere to put one by next year. Let me clean up the mess I got. I am going to try and take some time off in the fall. I want to finish up the butterfly garden and get some river rocks for a couple of raised beds. I have 15 shrubs I need to plant, and I also have a bunch of Iris and Day lilies that will be shipped in fall.

Oh, another full sun plant that I have is the best one actually, it is called 'Cup Plant' (Silphium perfoliatum) It looks a little like a giant clump of sunflowers like Maximillion, but it does not have to be watered everyday, I watered mine about once every two weeks. It has the yellow flowers, nectar, seeds, and pollen, also the leaves fuse together to form a cup that holds water when it rains. Here is a picture.Thumb of 2012-07-02/virginiarose/29681a
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Mat.6:28-29
