Very late, but very happy in its new spot, my little rocket is here in the north shadow of the house, sun only in the morning next to the front walk. The bank garden follows, finally greening in the late rains after a long summer drought. August was a beautiful month this year.

Looks good! Hope you got a long period of flowering from it.

Thank you! It came so late that the cold started nipping the flowering stalks before they would naturally fade. The other, L. przewalskii shot up a month earlier but too hot and the flowers didn't open. I hope next years weather is somewhat normal but we'll see.
