Re: runner plants

Hmmm, Donna, maybe it's just as well I never found the place for
Sweet Annie...I really don't need any more inveterate seeders around
here;-)

Sorry...didn't mean that Tansy had a scent you'd notice from afar,
but if you brush the foliage it does.  What's left of mine is a
tangle at ground level...just not enough sun for a straight stem and
it's not all that attractive anyway.  Yours is.
