Thanks for the link. Problem I'm having is that the leaf details vary a lot by age (top vs bottom) of the plant. Attached link shows this a bit better. The following photo has leaves of the known r. columnifera on the left and one of the "weeds" on the right. Top leaves are from the upper part of the plants and bottom ones from the lower. The new plants already have pretty long tap roots, so may transplant some of the smaller ones and just wait to see what blooms if nobody can distinguish at this stage. Here is a link that might be useful: Ratibida columnifera (MO Plants)

Thank you for your suggestions! I bought 2 callirhoe today! They are in gallon pots so I hope they will bloom towards the end of May like yours, Skybird. Ive noticed that most plants in my garden bloom 5-7 days after yours. Bonnie, I looked high and low for that gorgeous geum 'Mango Lasi' but the nurseries I looked at had the plain yellow, red and orange. Did you cut yours down to try and get a second bloom out of them this season? I will have to grow some from seed next year. They also didnt have the tiny monster geranium you mention Michelle but it is on my wish list now. I love Firewitch but I am trying to limit the silver foliage in the very front of my border. I am sorely tempted to pop some in a container thanks to your suggestion. If I see one, it might find itself wandering home with me. Thank you for all of your suggestions. One day, I just might have the color scheme perfect.

We chose this Kohler Elmbrook undermount sink for our guest bathroom. While we wish the overflow hole was on the opposite side so you don't see it directly under the faucet, we preferred the look of the Elmbrook over the Ladena. Our designer specified two XL Katie sinks for our 10 ft floating vanity in our primary bathroom (currently under construction). We're planning to install our sinks with a slight positive reveal and the Obrien sinks have a finished rim. Also they can be installed so the overflow hole doesn't appear directly under the faucets.

Hi Dave - it has been a wet summer and fall, moreso than usual. I'm actually concerned they get too much water as my neighbors sprinklers system hits them, and at times this spring and fall he was watering every single day because of grass seeding. So I was worried about chlorosis (plus he uses well water, don't know if it's acidic or alkaline). I was also worried maybe about a root rot. I remember from past posts you also have red oak leaf hollies. Have yours ever done this? Your beautiful specimens are what helped make.ne decide to get these. They're in the ground for 3 seasons now and had been doing great until this season. I can get some pictures of the undersides of the leaves.
