Thanks everyone for the nice comments on my banner. Smiling

It was pretty before and was worth repeating! Hint when I take pictures for banners, I make a copy of the picture and make a banner from the copy. Also, @Marilyn often asks for the full picture and it is nice that she takes an interest in how the banner came about.

Margaret,

That's ok. I'll have to remember the name of Buddleja Flutterby Petite™ Blue Heaven and order it online next year to plant into a container. Beautiful color.

There sure are, Marilyn, I have grown quite a few, and I loved everyone of them. If I could I would have a yard full of them, sadly they can't survive our cold winters. Sad
