It's rained like a Vietnamese summer in Ga since April 1st. I have a fountain in the front that was planted with thyme, then peppermint, then ringed around the bottom w nepeta Walkers' low. It was so lovely then: when my sister made her biannual visit - I looked over & it was as if the mowers had sprayed it with roundup. I'm not kidding ! In 2 days time - everything was DEAD.
So today I replanted with Salvia Gregii Lipstick, nepeta Felix, and Lobelia Fan Blue. Of course, all the signs said full sun - not a lot of water needed- PSYCHE ! The Lobelia is a BOG PLANT ? Quit it !!!! Let this be a lesson !! Google before you buy ! Make sure they are blooming so you get the right color you're being sold !
