Thankfully I've never come across one. Yuck!<br /><br />Thank you for the sweet mention. I bought so many pink flowers for so long, that I eventually decided I needed more color. Now the pink is in the minority and I need to start buying it again. :) Purple and lavender seem to be dominating these days. And some how a ton of orange has weaseled its way in as of late. I don't even LIKE orange flowers. Not sure how that happened.<br /><br />I had no idea there was a pink Coreopsis! It's being added to my want list as I type. And that Kalanchoe is totally awesome. Loving the pink dahlia, too. I have a light pink one that I LOVE, but it didn't do anything last year because of the hit it took from the slugs early on. This year it's being a little pokey in the growing department, but I'm crossing my fingers I get some flowers before the summer is over.<br /><br />Always love seeing photos of what's goin' on in your little piece of Eden.Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07247379600555185331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4685430032033752352.post-78020626336774974002013-08-09T16:23:25.109-07:002013-08-09T16:23:25.109-07:00I'm not obsessed with pink but it's OK, it...I'm not obsessed with pink but it's OK, it's a very prevalent color. I like Pulmonaria too, particularly the ones with a lot of silver. I like your tri-colored oxalis and I just got a Frost Proof. Did yours make it through the winter? I'm afraid to plant it outdoors so may just keep it in a pot. It is getting a bud, so it won't be long, can't wait to smell it. <br /><br />I also hate Crab spiders and actively hunt them down, I can't stand finding poor bees like that either.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773149110503024929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4685430032033752352.post-30218652411830141432013-08-09T15:45:13.901-07:002013-08-09T15:45:13.901-07:00I don't know if I'm OBSESSED with pink, bu...I don't know if I'm OBSESSED with pink, but it sure seems like it is the prevalent color in my garden, as well. By the way, we still need to get together one of these days. Are you going to go to that swapping sale at Fry Rd? I think that is such a cool idea.
