"Vigorous" is code for "has a Napoleonic compulsion to take over the world." "Zone 5 with protection" is a variation on the phrase "Russian roulette." "May require support" means your daughter's engineering degree will finally pay off. "Grows more beautiful each year" "Looks like road kill for the foreseeable future." "Carefree" refers more to the plant's attitude than to your workload.
"Grandma's Favorite" -- until she discovered free-flowering, disease-resistant hybrids.
"A favorite of birds": avoid planting near cars, sidewalks, or clotheslines.
"Moisture-loving" plants are ideal for landscaping all your bogs and swamps.
Helping the world one seed at a time
When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. Mary Ann LaPensee
We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart? The other heart was given to another for us to find.
