Oh, and @MaryMary, we were just talking about Blue-eyed Grass the other day. Mine just flowered for the first time this season! I had four little bees fighting over it and the one in this photo was the winner.
:love::love: I love that flower!!

I guess those other three bees are just going to have to wait their turn! :ROFLMAO:

Wild Lupine has begun blooming! Like most of my plants, I grew these from seed and have been waiting two years for this! Wild Lupine grows in the Scuppernong Prairie, which is a place I've been visiting since I was a kid. For that reason, it's even more exciting to have them blooming in my own yard.

Zigs, can I plant something like that in the side of my waterfall area? Just add some sand or rocks and stick it in the crevices? It sits in full sun.
