Re: Physostegia was: Troublesome plants


Very interesting - I got mine from a friend in MA - rampant in her case.
Five years later, still two smallish clumps. Full sun, dry soil, 
slightly on the  acid side.  They share the iris bed - along with 
100's of unknown allium seedlings!  Those will come out the next time 
I divide the iris.

So far, nepeta's are very well behaved - the worst thug I deal with 
are all the redbeckias re-seeding from my neighbor's garden.  The 
loosestrife will move to the hill, where it is dry and sandy and will 
get to cope with the brambles, yucca and KWANSO daylilies.

I have first bloom on my daylilies - SARATOGA SPRINGTIME opened 
yesterday - the cold temps haven't hurt it much.
