What a great plant for my garden and the pollinators love it!

I got two and put them in the far corners of this wood-framed bed. They are great, self-seed too so now I will have to dig some babies out and give them away. Gets pretty good sun here in Milwaukee. Haven’t seen too many pollinators on them yet. I get distracted by the Gian Blue Hyssop, which is covered in bees all summer. Yahoo.
