Nectaroscordum siculum, Sicilian Honey Lily (although that's the first time I've ever seen the english name used). A very nice ornamental allium. In fact, that reminds me that mine didn't survive when I moved my garden and I should get some more - I really like it. WW Here is a link that might be useful: Nectaroscordum siculum

Maybe a Buddleja! Buddlejas have a strong fascination for Red Admiral Butterflys, and are nicely perfumed.

Thanks. Now I know I have a monster on my hands, and it's not even planted on my side of the property line. Sigh. So pretty, why does it have to be invasive. Well, I guess that explains all of the suckers I mow down every time I cut the grass. Karen

I joined the 'out they go' club this morning. I was really unhappy with my echinaceas this year. They had suddenly filled in too much of the bed and they just were not good cultivars. The flowers were just not as nice as many I've seen. Plus the foliage had issues this year with the weather. I left one white one that looked pretty good for this time of year and was filling out. Left a couple of small seedlings, just in case I change my mind in the spring. (g) Dug out a Heliopsis 'Midwest Dreams' and I'm done with that. I'm not a big fan of a harsh yellow, I like soft yellows. The foliage was awful after it bloomed. I think I've grown the echinacea for a long time and it's time for a change anyway. I needed to move some lilies into the place they were sitting too. So, happy to get those out of there and now I have a head start on spring. Took the opportunity to loosen up the soil and throw a thick layer of half finished compost to sit over the winter. Now I have some empty spots to fill in the spring :-)
