The mystery, the drama, the tall valerian

This is my valerian plant.

The blossom smells a bit like lilac, but fainter. I don't know if it's the rainy spring/early summer we've had, but this crazy thing shot up about 2 feet to bloom. It's been blooming for about a week. Shaking my head. I have no idea why it zoomed up quite so tall.

And now, you can see way down low, it's re-blooming four inches off the deck.

Things that make ya go "hmmmm." It has a reason. I don't know it. There are so many things I don't know.

Mystery has its own appeal.
