Hi Riverrock,
I was very enamored by Lambs ears UNTIL I grew a lot of it as an edge to my street garden! There always seemed to be empty spots. I would dig it up and transplant more plants to that spot. It just never worked out. I always had empty spots with nothing but ugly roots showing. When they are young, they are so pretty but over a couple years they follow that pattern and spread everywhere but where you want them to stay.
Good luck with yours, maybe you will fare better than I.
 
I have never had a problem with my Lamb's Ear spreading everywhere. I thin it every couple of years to contain it.
 
Hi Scarez,
I love the picture of the Rose campion. They are so pretty.
When I moved to Tennessee from Pa. I had never seen them before and I had many on the property that I bought. I have moved, but still spread the seeds.
A few years ago a fellow from England was looking for seeds and I sent him some. That turned into an Email friendship, but we have lost touch, I fear he has left this planet. Strange how gardening can bring people together.
 
I think that lambs ears are a love/hate relationship for me. I do think that they feel really nice, but have always looked like a mess when I had them. Maybe I am just one of those people who likes their perennials to behave themselves.
