Here in Charleston it doesn't spread too terribly, though one plant will grow large.. they also tend to flop so stake them while they are young.<br /><br />The echinacea definitely looks like echinacea..these are some of my favorites and bloom their heads off in the heat of the summer when everything else struggles.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524574998937986323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3979720903165549695.post-41642751406440434122012-04-22T13:48:56.626-05:002012-04-22T13:48:56.626-05:00Becca my dear, everything looks great. I really b...Becca my dear, everything looks great. I really believe the dahlia will bloom this year. Your really should separate the coneflower and the foxglove. Which ever one you move will be pissed off for several days, just keep it watered. They yarrow can spread pretty quickly if it's really happy. I try NOT to water mine and that has helped in it staying manageable. It does like hot and dry areas. You can always put it in a large container and place the container in the mist of the plants. You can have several containers of it as fillers...I am still not sure that's larkspur, it also looks like cosmos. Need to go look at mine. It could be larkspur though. That's too funny about leaving the snaps uncovered. You should get poppy blooms...do you pinch the tops out of the red salvia? If you do, your plants will get fuller....I'll hush now. I have not forgotten about your request for poppy and larkspur seeds. As soon as I collect some they will be on their way. Plant them in the fall of course..... :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13061146166736270529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3979720903165549695.post-26670294598440857092012-04-21T22:34:05.136-05:002012-04-21T22:34:05.136-05:00So sweet of you to plant your mom's garden.

That really gives it a little country look that I so adore.<br /><br />Can't wait to see everything in its' glory. So, so pretty.<br /><br />So happy that you went and perked up your sweet Momma's garden as well. I bet she was tickled to the moon and back.<br /><br />Have a glorious weekend dear one.

You aren't alone. The flower you need help with I think is cosmos! There are dwarf ones and then there are tall ones. In my experience some times it is just all foliage until almost the very end of the season and then they flower August or Sept here until frost. Others bloom earlier. Yarrow typically clumps for me, but maybe in Alabama it goes crazy!

They have another one which is not the filly laceleaf foliage that doesn't do that, it just gets a little bigger each year like all perennials.<br /><br />Cher <a href="http://sunraygardening.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Sunray Gardens</a>Sunray Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06691531921190526219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3979720903165549695.post-43365672103191177522012-04-21T09:14:29.907-05:002012-04-21T09:14:29.907-05:00Hi Becca, That Dahlia Figaro should bloom, I love ...Hi Becca, That Dahlia Figaro should bloom, I love that plant. Your Yarrow may take over..just yank out whatever you don't want..you may want to catch the flowers before they go to seed.<br /><br />Be sure when you are planting that you rip apart the root ball of each and every plant..so that it is stimulated to reach out and grow instead of just balling up.<br />The Echinacea and Foxglove are awfully close together..I would move the foxglove to a different area. <br />Your Mom's flowers are looking good..I hope she is getting along okay:)Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.com
