Mexican Giant Hyssop at Longwood Gardens
Medicines may be necessary.
Flowers lift the heart.
But your smile is the best restorative of all.

Thanks, Sara! Hope you had a great day yesterday.
Hi WG! Did you happen to see my portulaca post? Your praise of portulacas helped convince me to give those a try as replacements for the lobelia in my rose garden. Thanks! Hope life and gardening are going well for you.

Hey, is that centranthus? How pretty it looks growing en mass. I have a couple of clumps of centranthus alba (friends have warned me that it will spread like wildfire).

Hi Chigiy! Longwood Gardens is a magnificent horticultural showplace in Chester County, PA. I have other posts with various links and photos (you can check the "other gardens" category if you're interested). Or you can visit their website at www.longwoodgardens.org.
Thanks for visiting, Nikki. Welcome! The plant is Mexican Giant Hyssop at Longwood Gardens. I don't think it's related to centranthus, but I could be wrong!
