Once upon a time - when I was a child - there were lots of trees of heaven growing downtown. There was a little princess (meaning me) who played under the trees of heaven without any worries. The old emperor's castle (my grandpa's home) was surrounded by those trees, but he never thought of cutting back any of them. He knew that his small princess would cry if he would do that.
I was given my first Joe-Pye Weed plant by a gal in Minnesota during a Dave's Garden plant swap. After that, I was hooked on both Joe-Pye and plant swaps.
