Green Envy 2010
My GE is new this year. I just love it.
nice color on that one. I definitely need to try more shad on mine next year... or move to WA
It looks great with the bluegreen leaves of agastache
If I ever move to zone 4 or 5, I'll get another one of these. LOL.
Nice 'Green Envy' you two. Last year mine had spoon shaped and strait petals and this year has regular petals that drop down. Still has a nice coloration no matter the shape.
Mine is new this year. I was wondering if anyone has one 3 or 4 years lod.
How do they stand up to aging.
This is third year for mine. First year almost got nibbled to death, 2nd year was protected late and grew about 2' tall with two blooms. This year was protected from beginning and reached about 4 or 5 feet before the hot drought weather hit. Looks kind of ragged right now. I have had something nibbling the single blooms of a lot of echies at night for the first part of summer, but it seems to be gone now.
They do look nice,gives me an idea.
WOW Pat 5 feet tall? not bad for a 30- 36 inch plant. I might have to move mine.

My GE is in it's second year and I was impressed with the number of blooms. It is planted next to a Magnus. GE got about 3 1/2 feet tall but I was surprised by how it flopped over. So I may help it a little bit and make sure it has some support next year. Over all I like it and am happy with it's performance.
GKfes, thanks for the flopping info. Mine are in their first year and I thought the flopping was because they were new. I will have to supportmine too,as they are planted with lilies and DL's
