It's a native wild flower here.”

it, have proven hardy in Z5 Kansas, handling temperatures to -10F. All mine
are sending up spikes now.”

Aaron’s comment sent me out to check my plants for spikes. So far, nothing.
Otherwise, my plants seem to be growing vigorously.

Dennis, do your plants show spikes yet? Please say no. I figure I’m about
half-way between you and Aaron.
