with what's already been said! 
The great diversity that these plants offer my garden and its many visitors are a great source of joy! I still use nursery propagated plants as well, but they don't affect me with nearly the same intensity as the humble and easy-going natural plants I've started from seed or found in untended areas growing wild. It's like the difference between looking at a picture of a horse race, and actually being the winning jockey: one gets a moment's notice from me and a rather bland perusal, the other is an experience fully designed to savor with wonder and excitement and to appreciate at length. Here, Moldavica is never without masses of pollinators in action and the bees stick to the Licorice Mint like they're attached with elastic strings...they even spend the night there.
