Okay, I need help. I went to the nursery and bought all sorts of
perennials that are good for butterflies and hummingbirds and bees.

I usually make sure I have an identification spike in each pot because
I'll get home and not be able to remember what I bought. So guess what
happened? No spike in two (identical plant) pots and I can't remember what
they were. HOWEVER, I did get a name tag, "Blue Fortune" and when I tried
to look that up on the 'net I came up with Anise Hyssop "Blue Fortune".
Anise Hyssop doesn't ring a bell. I thought I had looked at butterfly
bushes and I didn't come home with any. Could this Anise Hyssop, which is
supposed to be loved by butterflies, be the butterfly bush I meant to buy?

If not, can anyone relate the name "Blue Fortune" to Bee Balm or
Coneflowers?

Thanks.

Butterfly bush is Buddleia, not hyssop. As far as "blue fortune", do a
google search with quotation marks around the two words. That forces the
search to use that exact phrase, as opposed to any occurrence of the two
words. I just did. You'll like the results.
