Honey badger did. Honey badger don’t care.

Honey rock spirea

Honey pink penstemon

Honey sore-eye poppy

Honey creeping Jenny

Honey licorice mint

Honey zebra grass

Honey rosa glauca

I think it’s going to be chartreuse New Zealand flax (phormium Apricot Queen), blue hostas, Mexican thread grass and…red honeysuckle?
