Actually called meadow-rue. Did you google it or did you recognize it?

Gonna hafta find another plant fer tonight now...

In the meantime, here's the 3rd picture for the meadow-rue (which, since I've got 4 plants of it now, I'm hoping ta move em as a border in the back yard with the Sarah Burnhart peonies)

Never heard of it!

I thought it WAS a tough one ... but I'm told it grows pretty much everywhere in the northern hemisphere.

I think that Friend Lee's just a little too close to nature. Or it's growing out in her back yard too, or sumthin

          Never saw that before..Didnt think there were many plants i hadnt seen...If its herb.  What does it
smell,,,,taste like.??

[Front-Ranger]

Yup, I just saw it growing all over the place on my workout hike this weekend. It looks a lot like colombine, which is our state flower. Whenever I see rue, it reminds me of something I regret. Usually neglecting a friend. I have tried to grow it in my yard but it's a tough one to get started.

Dunno why they call it a herb - no special smell/taste/use ... just ornamental (looks pretty). Ours are growing in relatively shady and dry areas a the back yard - though I do tend ta water em somewhat regularly...

Now fer a close-up a the last type a peonie ...

Howdy Sheriff...your flowers are GORGEOUS and the pictures are AWESOME...I am working my way backward through your yard, neighborhood, and pictures. I think I told you I do not have a yard but I LOVE flowers, trees, etc . I guess my favorite wild flowers are Indian Paintbrush, Bluebonnets and BIG Sunflowers . I have made several trip to Glacier National Park MT and fell in love with Bear Grass in the Park. VERY interesting flowers
