Transplanted Cat's Pajamas Nepeta - October/November 2023

These #FallPlanting posts are getting further-and-further out from reality.  The photos below show lush, green garden.  I'm posting this at the end of November.  This was from way back in early October.  I had a Cat's Pajamas Nepeta planted in the backyard in pretty deep shade.  It wasn't doing well.  So, I dug it out and brought it over to the curved border outside the kitchen window.  

The first photo below is the Nepeta peeking out from under a Guacamole Hosta leaf.  The second is the new home by the peonies and Lucky Charm Anemones:

This doesn't count in my new/divided plants, right?  It is just a transplant.  

I'm posting this in November 2023, but I did this transplanting in mid-October 2023.

My 2023 Fall Planting List - so far - includes a number of new and divided plants.
