Yellow Sneezeweed


 Sneezeweed

One of my favorite garden plants. Cold hardy, pest & disease resistant, drought tolerant.

 Sneezeweed AKA Helen's Flower

I prefer this color but there is no question that the plain yellow is much more robust.

Pansy

 

Pansy looking remarkably good after the heat of summer.

I find it supremely ironic that somehow the word "pansy" got transmogrified into a word that means a person who is not tough, because the plant is tough as nails and will survive conditions that leave a lot of other plants on the compost heap.

This might be a good choice for up on the hill at The Lodge.

Looks interesting, but rich, loamy soil is in short supply around here.
