The first is Selfheal Prunella vulgaris. No, it is not native to the US.

There is a native variety, Prunella vulgaris var. laceolata, which relatively narrow leaves. If the middle stem leaves are a third as wide as long with a tapering base it would probably be this. If the leaves are closer to half as wide as long and are rounded at the base it is the European var. vulgaris.

The second plant is Lobelia siphilitica and it is native.

i thought that the southern magnolia only grew in zone 7 and warmer? how in the heck did it end up on the zone 5/6 boundary up north?!?!? looking at some pictures online, i do think that id of this thing being magnolia grandiflora is correct. can we blame canadian geese for "planting" it? im happy to see it's at least native to the eastern US though. my goodness maybe there is something to global warming! i will have to continue to monitor this plant and see if it survives through our harsh winters. i am really shocked but again after looking through photos online i think it has to be southern magnolia. WOW

Amy I hope you'll bring your grasses to the Plant Swap on November 1 held at Forest Park. I don't know if you'll find what you're looking for in native grasses, but you're sure to find something pretty and besides who wouldn't want to spend a day with a bunch of radical Texas gardeners? Cheryl
