It's Herbstonne, isn't it? I just love that plant, and yours is truly lovely. I have had good luck with cutting it back about a third when it finishes blooming. Then it blooms again at a lower altitude and I like it just as much that way in the fall.

The foliage of this plant is great too. I have never divided mine, have you? If so, when do you divide? I would like to have more clumps of it. The foliage is so beautiful I think it's an asset the whole year.

THOUGHT it was a Laciniata. You may be right though. I googled a few images and it seems hard to tell the two apart.

What are the differences?

Never divided it yet but it was moved from L.I.

Yes, the foliage is very nice for months!! It did real well on the corner of my house. Shade in the morn and full sun in the afternoon.

Thanks

Greg

Hi Rachel, I love the family history of this plant!! and would love to get a few divisions of it. I have a plant of the same species I collected over 10 years ago with variegated foliage(white(creamy) and green) I've never offered this plant before but yours is so beautiful I can't resist. I live in NC so you would have to mail them to me but I would be glad to pay for the postage. It will probably be several weeks before my plants emerge so I can dig you up a division. I think I have a photo of my plant if you are interested. Please email me at wildflowerman_2000@yahoo.com. Thanks, Mark

Dwarf Red for it full bodied flavor and distinctive sweetness, is considered one of the best. Manzano has got good girth and taste Misi Luki has a very fruity flavor. They are sturdy and fast growing.

Mark, I am not sure why this is, but I have been more impressed by Canadian window manufacturers than their American cousins. I am bulding a house on the coast and considering Benor Windows (from Quebec) and we are just sold a house that we built that had Fibertec casement windows. I was very impressed with the whole process: the quality of the workmanship, the wood veneer interior, the feel of the mechanism, the energy performance (our windows had a "U" of 0.10!), and the cost (lowest price for best performance). If Fibertec had a Miami/Dade-rated window, I would have bought it in a heartbeat. Yes, I am a very satisfied Fibertec customer! I cannot recommend them too highly. Vince
