Gracie the Cat

RE: Gracie the Cat Post by LITTLE SUZY (136) | (07/09/2008) Contact I don't think it's Lady's Mantle. I have that and the flower is more of a spray over the leaves and not as thick as hers is. Is this plant very tall? You've got our curiosity now, all the plant lovers out there. Anyway, it's the most lovely picture of your Gracie peaking out from under the plant.

Gracie looks very pretty and at home in the plant. I love that you call it Uncle Chuck since I too am a sentimental gardener. I have a burgundy peony called Grandpa Johns....several family members have starts off of the original plant and I have carried it to two homes. Thanks for posting and I will follow the progress of uncovering Uncle Chucks botanical name! Blessings to you and yours!

It makes such a nice frame for the pix of your kitty! Report Spam or Abuse RE: Gracie the Cat Post By (Guest Post) (07/03/2008) Your cat Gracie looks very much like my cat Graycie! I think she looks sweet even if she is a tad grumpy in the pic. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Gracie the Cat Post by NokomisNims (16) | (07/03/2008) Contact Hi-- can you describe this plant? How tall is it? what are the leaves like -- furry? rubbery? notched? Do the flowers have a scent? When do the flowers start to bloom on the plant, and how long in the season do they last? Have you ever seen a similar plant with a different-colored flower? Is this a cultivated plant, or a wildflower? thanks, Nancy in NC Report Spam or Abuse RE: Gracie the Cat Post by tedsmom (806) | (07/03/2008) Contact I don't know the name of the plant, but I sure would like to have some of it - it's very pretty!
