I picked up a couple of plants at a local nursery. Prairie Smoke, Geum triflorum, I was vaguely familiar with because I remember Donna talking about starting it in a greenhouse several years ago. Pretty thing. I note that it spreads by rhizomes - is it a fast spreader?
The other one was in a small pot and labeled Ironweed. Though I know that it is a Vernonia, I don't know which species. Can anyone tell me which species would MOST commonly use the name Ironweed? I'd like to get some idea of ultimate size before planting it.
