P. 'Pierre's Pure Pink' is in bloom today. It is really nice. It is "new" to me and looks good interplanted with P. 'Sissinghurst White'. Also, the postrate species of Pulmonaria(angustifolia?) is in bloom. This one is a true ground cover, as it forms a low growing mat. Flowers are blue. Foliage is a very dark green. The foliage stands out if interplanted with Lysimachia n. 'Aurea'. I believe I have solved the mystrery of "Aztec Grass." I found it for sale here in Indianapolis today and bougt a pot of it. This is the second nursery that has told me it is Liriope muscari 'Variegated'. I am still not sure of the correct botanic name. I am copying Tony Avent in hopes he can tell us. It may be variegata or variegatus or something else. It has a light green center and distinct white margins. Clyde Crockett z5
