Category: Mexican Bush Sage

Plants, that is. Ziva and I did our little road trip today to pick up some plants we ordered. These are now in the house:

• ‘PowWow Pink’ Coneflower
  • ‘Cheyenne Spirit’ Coneflower
    • Rue, herb
      • ‘Pink Magic’ Asters
        • ‘Purple Magic’ Asters
          • ‘Mystic Spires’ Salvia

The Rue and Coneflower inventories have been updated on the website. I’ll add the Asters and Salvia pages to it by tomorrow. They are all blooming and beautiful. I’ll post pictures of all of them in a bit. The Asters are in cute terracotta looking containers all ready for you to put on your sunny porch or patio to enjoy. Or you can plant them in your garden.

I found another cool supplier, so I went on ahead and made an order from them that we’ll pick up Monday the 12th.

Here’s what we’re getting:

• * Chasmanthium latifolium, Inland Sea Oats, ornamental grass (new)
• * Muhlenbergia capillaris, Pink Muhly Grass, ornamental grass
• Scutellaria suffrutescens, Pink Skullcap, groundcover
• * Muhlenbergia lindheimeri, Lindheimer Muhly Grass, ornamental grass (new)
• Salvia leucantha, Mexican Bush Sage, shrub (new)
• * Symphoricarpos orbiculatus, Coralberry in a 5-gallon size! Can’t wait to see how pretty it looks.
• * Bignonia capreolata ‘Tangerine Beauty’, Crossvine Tangerine Beauty, vine, also in a 5-gallon size (new)

* Native/nativar plant to Texas or the Southeast US. Five out of seven plants on this order are natives/nativars. The other two plants are native to Mexico.

Enjoy the pics!

Happy diggin’ in the dirt!
