Default update

--just a little update this morning on the purple stuff. The Walker's Low Nepeta, a.k.a, catmint, has been planted for a couple of weeks. And so far, no cats have shown up. But just now, I saw two gold finches make a visit. Sometimes around these parts, we call them wild canaries. I was happy to see them out there. They sure look pretty next to all that purple. And yesterday, I planted some new coreflowers for them. There are many new hybrids of coneflowers lately. Even green ones. Yesterday, I planted 3 Ruby Giant coneflowers. I hope the gold finches like them, too.
