Re: late summer flowers


Uh, oh, I didn't think about how invasive Ceratostigma would be when I
planted it along a gravel walkway.  This is year 3 and it's thriving.  I
guess when it invades the pathway I'll have to either keep pulling or use
Roundup on the gravel.  I should have thought of this invasiveness, but so
many things don't survive in my lean soil...
