Neal I think it probably was McKana giant columbine but can't be sure. It's been a long time since I tried. Thank you for the offer of seed, yes I'll take you up on that. Maybe I can return the favor of something you'd like from my garden.
Y'all keep the suggestions coming, I think I'm seeing some light from the edges of my rut. Help me to climb out, where are the enablers? LOL!
