I certainly appreciate it.<br /><br />Sunray Gardens - I always leave some of these plants at the side so i can cut and dry them for the butterfly parties. thanks for the visit.<br /><br />Betsy - thank you for the comments, but I still haven't got at least 1/3 of your commenters, haha! Take care always.<br /><br />One - I hope I made you smile in this post, but certainly my long quest is now over with your assistance. Now i will extend the ID to all my neighbors who have them too. I will also experiment on its repellant properties for mosquitoes, as its scent is better than citronella.<br /><br />Chris - thanks, but what do you mean by "this plant is a magnet"?<br /><br />Caroline Gill - thanks for appreciating my discourse on Dill or No Dill. I hope you smiled. Since you will miss critters and butterflies now that you are in the big city, you should come over here more often, because we have them all the time. I already know now the meaning of "murmuration".<br /><br />Nature Footstep - you are a good photographer, and i appreciate your nice words for mine. thanks.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-59543741299081932672011-11-19T10:04:41.295+08:002011-11-19T10:04:41.295+08:00Huh, wow seems like a wonder plant!
