Despite continuing drought conditions, this eager veronica (speedwell) is attempting a reblooming.


Of course, finding homes for these old friends in the new garden beds out back does involve being a little more proactive against the prolific oregano than I've been before. Some clumps have been dug out to share with friends...others are just ripped out and left to die (no doubt scattering their seeds everywhere, but I'll deal with that later). Here's some transplanted veronica and bright yellow coreopsis (neither in bloom just now).


Also rescued was one very large plant of Coronation Gold yarrow, which was easily split into two when it arrived home. It's silvery foliage makes it relatively easy to spot in its new location. I also proudly call your attention to the Fountain Grass to the right in the picture. It's been here in the garden all season.
