   Jan, the plant doesn’t look too unhealthy. It’s a native and has a kinda straggly growth habit. It would of course benefit from some TLC. Mulch for sure. Maybe if we pinch them back as they grow they might branch out some. I might try that next year.

   I believe it’s offician name is campana. It also loves the sun, and reseeds itself profusely after blooming and the seed pod dry and burst.
