Back in 2012, I wrote a blog post about my friend Patricia's garden and called it "The garden where everything grows faster, bigger, and better than mine…." That was her old garden—since erased by new homeowners—but her "new" garden is definitely sticking with the theme. I recently visited, and one of several things I complimented her on was the amazing Symphytum × uplandicum 'Axminster Gold' she's growing...![]()
She said it was inspired by my plant. You don't have to be a gardener to see there's a bit of a difference between the two. This is mine...

Ya. Who's inspired by who? Next year I vow to give my poor plant a little more water.
