|
This is my white chenille plant:
It stands about 7 feet tall!! It is absolutely beautiful!! I actually wouldn't say it is white, it is more greenish yellowish white(hope ya'll can understand my ramblin'!!) My reddish pink colored chenille plants droop also to the ground and this one is not drooping but growing straight up.It seems it my be starting to droop a little, maybe. It is amazing to see!!

This is pretty. Do you ever see birds eating the seeds?

Thank you Bethie!! I've never noticed any birds eating the seeds, but the grasshoppers love it. When I go out to look at it the grasshoppers jump every which way!! I sowed a package of cottage garden flowers in my garden and this and my red chenille plants come up from the seeds. What a wonderful surprise!! Dooley had to ID the plants because I had no idea what they were!!

That is a neat plant. I've never seen one before. I have a Goats Beard that kind of blooms like that but nothing about the leaves are the same and it's not nearly as thick at the top with those blooming stems. I bet it is even more lovely to be right there and see it.
