Porterweed August 28, 2024

 I chose this at a plant swap in March.  It was a tiny seedling.  Now it's about 5 feet tall.  This is a tough little plant, I accidentally pulled it up twice while I was weeding, and I just stuck it back in the ground.  It is still thriving.  I've always liked Porterweed, but I stopped buying it because it's not winter hardy.  It never occurred to me to let it re-seed.  So this has been a fun experience.  I was here on Sunday and I specifically noticed that it didn't have any blooms on it.  Now I'm here on Wednesday, and it has many blooms on it.  I guess it needed a little encouragement because we had a little rain here a few days ago.
