No, you aren't going nuts, Marilyn. Liatris' do look similar
to lythrum. The drawbacks are that they doesn't bloom anywhere
near as long and there is only one I know of that gets even
close to the height. OTOH, I wouldn't grow loosestrife even if
there weren't another plant that even came close to the same
look. I suppose I have a different philosophy about my
responsibility re: the environment vs. aesthetics in my garden;
no contest.
