Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Wow, Aaron, is that ever a nice blue.
That flower stalk looks like it could withstand strong winds.
I've got some of those orange/yellow flowers, but can't remember the name.
Yours are soooo nice; mine never get that full, just a spindly few flowers here and there.

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Hi Barb,
The flowers are gaillardia or "blanket flowers" they grow bushy in dry alkaline soil. 😉

nice Y. pallida bloom. All my Y. pallidas are slowly dieing........pH issues?? I think I need to spread some lime around my southwest plants since our pH of 5 may be too acidic?? 😐

That's the name, Aaron, thanks!!!!
I always forget the name of stuff over the winter 😆 😆
Whoa, Tim, pH 5 has gotta be way too acidic then.
Maybe test a survivor by scratching lime into the root zone?
With your yucca growing acumen, the problem must be the pH.
