Remember that alien mystery plant I wrote about on 6-29-08? Well, I think I've solved the mystery. The plant is finally in bloom (took months) and it has purple flowers. Maybe I'll have to make it the feature plant on my blog... because it is the only purple flower indigenous to my garden.
The name of the plant (I think) is a called Gayfeather. The latin name is: Liatris (kind of sounds like a mouthwash). Anyway, I am glad that it's finally come into bloom. I only wish that whoever lived here before knew how tall it gets... because it's blocking the view of my other plants. Not a good plant to put "up front".
