| I promised rouge21 I'd post when I saw signs of life from my Arizona Apricot Gaillardia. There are quite a few tiny leaves coming up through the mulch where the dead stalks were. Also, all of my Butterfly Bushes are showing signs of life now - both at the bottom and on the limbs that were left from last year. I'm so pleased to see Arizona Apricot return this year. I was afraid that it might be one of the Gaillardias that is more like an annual. That is what has happened to G. Oranges and Lemons here. No one I know of locally has had it return after the first year. Linda |

| Thanks Linda for the update and good for you.. My BBush is still not showing :(. And of the 6 AApricot there *might* be 2 that show some very small leaves at the base. I say "might" as this planting is part of a natural setting ie lots of weeds and grasses all around.so I might be seeing spring growth of weeds. |

| I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for you, rouge21. It is still early. I remember one year that a butterfly bush did not put out any new growth until late in May. I had given up hope but it came through for me. I hope to read soon that you have new leaves on both plants. Good Luck, Linda |
