This tall stem suddenly appeared in my rose garden. I didnt know what the dickens...but I did remember planting something several years ago that never came up. It is the most unusual flower I have ever planted and I have planted a few over the last 20 years. Moral of the stoy...NEVER give up on flowers. We are not the only ones to work in the gardens. Bees, birds, butterflies and God. Thank you Nature Hills for having this picture or else I would have never remembered what this was. Beautiful and is reproductive, another one coming up right beside it. Whoopee!!!
