One I bought was a. lilifolia and the other a. confusca. They are quite far
apart in the garden and seem to grow quite differently. One makes a clump
that does spread, but seems well behaved enough. Blooms well but does seem
to dry out easily in the front west, sloped bed.
The other one doesn't bloom as well and seems to seed all over in the area
it is in. One was from the Hardy Plant Society of Oregon sale and another a
commercial nursery.
Which, do you suppose, is which?
