I appreciate your list.  I have to deal with a lot of dry, semi-shade also.
But I'm curious about the following 2 items:
	Chelone (turtlehead)
	Joe Pye weed (eupatorium)
I thought these needed moist soil, evenly moist soil.
I thought, perhaps, the reason my Joe Pye weed didn't bloom more than a 
couple weeks was b/c it didn't get enough water.  Last year was the first 
full summer for it and I was very disappointed in it.  I hope it blooms 
longer this summer.

Enjoyed the Chelone tremendously.  Have it where I pass by a lot and where 
the gutter leaks, I think.

Best wishes to you all --
