Cup plant and Compass plant are two different plants. The compass plant will follow the sun. Cup plants have large leaves that hold water, and small sunflower heads for their height. Mine were 10' tall and much as I liked them, I got them started down the gravel road and dug mine out. They also clumped pretty fast and reseeded. Aren't compass plant petals finer?

Everyone has such nice pictures. I think cottage gardens give more color and variety than any other garden.

Notmartha, your gardens have the best cottage feel and I just love the rest of your pictures.

This isn't very cottage, but I grew a few glads.
