So guess mine are going to be the guinea pig on how they well they grow and bloom. I may search some blogs and see what comes up.

Wow, talk about a WOW factor! I think I had seen this variety once...and was wondering what it might be? Thanks for the lead!!! I just wonder where you can get some of these?

Matt, thank you for the good report! And one that we can depend on since you grow so many varieties. You must have a ranch! :-)

Now to find a sunny spot for my Lynn's Legacys. Hmmm, what can I move?

Blue ranger looks stunningly beautiful in the photos. A silver ball of dense foliage with purple flowers is very desirable, even if it blooms only occasionally. Thanks for the tip on how to grow it.

I'll take some pics of mine and send or attch them.

I have been meaning to buy one for years and am puzzled why is not in my garden yet. have even gone to a nursery that always has them and they were out that day. I have gone again to get one but was distracted by something else. You know how that goes.

I hope that mine continues to grow taller. I'd like to know it's going to be a privacy hedge at some point. It doesn't bloom endlessly, but it does a bit more frequently when you don't hear a mention of the train. Thanks for reminding me to go take some photos for posting here.

The HEB in Kyle was selling one gallon plants of Lynn’s Legacy this summer. I was surprised to see it and bought a few more.

Sorry it took so long to get these photos posted. Computer issues. My oldest ones appear to be close to 6' tall, about 6 yrs old. I have noticed a few blooms when others aren't. But, not enough to make me rush out to buy more. I had 3 that had fallen over after just having planted them. They were on the way out when I noticed it. So, now there is a hole in that row. Trying to figure out how I can make that hole appear planned .

Pardon all the computer issues. Allow me to refocus on my copy, too. This variety has grown up to 6' tall in as many years. It does bloom rarther dense. Because of that I've noticed Black Sooty Mold which can be fixed by pruning inside the bush to allow more air to circulate. The density of blooms does smother it with color, but that is what brings the attention to it even more. They all need some selective pruning now. As below, with the large holes of space, I'm starting to see some small leaves starting to reappear. I had pruned the oldest ones this way with great success.

I had also planted them a bit high to allow for better drainage. All these photos were taken last year.

Density of blooms doesn't initially show much greenery. The hellstrip needs some designing touches put to it as quickly as I can get back to that area. Probably adding some Anacacho Orchids, a faux stream bed with Gregg's Blue Mistflower with irises tucked to the back (in from of the Coral Vine).

I had wanted to make a wire topiary of a life-size horse and foal coming out through the break. While the creation wouldn't have been a problem, dealing with theft would be. So, I've nixed that idea. There are so many good xeric plants that you can tuck in front of this plant. Full sun is exactly what it wants.

Roselee, I believe you'll get years of enjoyment out of your Everblooming Texas Sage. Just prune to help air flow throughout the bushes.

This is the most recent photo of the oldest ones (though taken late in the day), about 6-1/2 yrs old. These are the oldest and tallest.

Hope I've helped. I'm not sure that I answered your questions fully.

Crystal, thank you for the great photos. The 'hell strip' plantings are fantastic. I can tell that when it blooms it really BLOOMS and that they are very worthy plants.

Thank you for the tips on pruning so that all parts of the plant get enough sun. I'm wondering if they can be cut back in early spring to control the height. Does anybody know?

I'm encouraged to find good full sun places for my plants. I've planted one. Now to consider where to plant the other two.

I have seen them tightly pruned but maybe they were just young.

I've never thought about topping them. I've seen pictures on the web and in my neighborhood where some were topped. It was sad to see how far back it was cut, only to see that blooms that were affected. Don't remember if that was this variety. Come this Spring/Summer, I'll take some pics of those and post them. I've often wondered if feeding them would help with the blooms. Has anyone tried this?

would these be ok in 8b west facing morning part sun, 2-6 full west facing sun? need to plant asap if so

Wow, 6 years! Hope you're still gardening. I'm so old it's hard to keep up with watering and weeding. Thinking of moving near my daughter one of these days, living alone sucks when you need a little help on occasion.

I'm still here, but as the old song says: "Don't get around much anymore." I've cut back on the number of plants a lot, but the yard still looks pretty good. Lynn's Legacy is blooming beautifully, I highly recommend it. Greeting to all my old friends. We sure had a lot of fun here in the old days! I wish you all well.

so good to hear from you. Yes, my gardening is even more "natural" thaen before. I hust let thosenative grasses grow as they like the lynn's legacy is holding their own.
