An older woman I didn’t recognize rang my doorbell today.  She asked me to tell her the name of the tall purple flowers in my stop sign bed (answer: “May Night” Salvia).  I’ve had a few polite friends express interest before, but never a stranger.  How exciting!  She made my day.  Perhaps I should pay this one forward.  I’ve noticed yards of strangers with beautiful plants and wanted so badly to know what the plants were.  Why not stop and ask?
