treeskinIt's that 80-plant ID test I got to set up last week.
Some of the gems, this time around:
Castor beans, mistaken for ratiba (a red and yellow coneflower daisy)
Sweet alyssum (a 6" tall member of the mustard family, used for edging beds) instead of hardy ageratum, which is 3-5' tall, perennial, and blooms only in autumn
Catmint (Nepeta x fassenii) mistaken for Salvia greggii (one has grey foliage and blue flowers, the latter has dark green foliage and scarlet flowers)
**shakes head**
This isn't difficult material, folks.
