Good lovely morning
Pleased to share this flowering helenium 

Otherwise known as Sneezeweed (bless you!
) as its dried leaves were used for making snuff by the indigenous Americans
believed to rid the body of evil spirits
They also last 2+ weeks as cut flowers
Enjoy

What better showy plant to share to you than Phlox - from the Greek literally meaning "a flame" related to phlegein "to burn" 


Enjoy!

Lithodora is derived from the Greek words lithos meaning stone, and dorea, meaning gift referring to its habitat in rocky, scree-like, or mountainous areas
The honey bee agrees that this is a stone gift indeed
