That would be nice Tom. Thanks.. the beginning of the "Purple Plicata Farm"?

Greg, I thought it was one that I dug up from my old house when I moved... but I'm not sure. My garden photographs of it only go back to 2007 (unless I go back further w/ my slides)...I had been calling it 'Stepping Out' for years, and now know that it is not. It is early, with a long bloom. Last year I measured bloom stalks between 33 & 36" (low and High, not average).. It's almost in bloom... maybe a week away.. I think of it leaning towards blue.. It's been a strong grower and great performer, whatever it is...

I've got a few first -time stalks coming up... getting excited!
The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.
