I'm still on the lookout for PURPLE gomphrena, aka Globe amaranth (Gomphrena globosa) or a MIX that includes dark purples.

Unusual POLE beans. Space is a premium in my fenced veggie garden.

Deer-resistant plants of all sorts. I have a profound interest in exercising alternatives to arborvitae and hosta, aka deer candy as my community considers resorting to lethal means of deer management.
