RE: Gaura

Hi Janice 

What color is verbascum "Jackie"?

I sure love 'Helen Johnson' -- sort of a muted rusty peach (no justice in my
definition, sorry) and it bloomed and bloomed, much longer than the chiaxii
and chiaxii 'album.'

I have seeds to try v. phoenicia (?) and v. thapsis, but understand they
have a long tap root and have to find room to direct seed.  I love the
flowers, and the birds love the seeds.  Nice upright interest when the
foxglove and delphiniums are gone.

For mine is just a little old fashioned garden where the 
flowers come together to praise the Lord and teach all 
who look upon them to do likewise.

I AM in shape.  ROUND is a shape!
