Anyone have these growing around your house? I picked a mess and placed dem on my night stand  What a great way to go to sleep with the smell of those things reminding me of outdoors  They go to seed year after year care free on their own  |

Love them Doug!! ;D I have them here in my yard too. collected seeds long time ago n they come back every year. Your right phil. also Dames rocket blooms early in spring. phlox in summer. theres also a huge diffrence in the seed pods. The dames rocket had long seed pods like spider flowers. as were phlox has lil round seed pods. I use to get them confused till I learned the diffrence.. This is a pic I took back in 08 when I thought they were phlox  the 2nd pic I took down by the shade area. looks like they crossed.   |
