With a bit of snooping I found the plant I spied in Irene Dunlap’s Newport Beach garden, a garden you’ll get to see on June 6. More about that later.</p> <p>Turns out this unusual plant is something completely new, and how often does that happen? Ptilotus exaltatus has hot pink tips on top of silver plumes. It’s common name is ‘Joey’. </p> <p>‘Joey’, like its namesake, thrives through heat and drought. In fact, do not over-water ‘Joey’ or it won’t live long. </p> <p>This new foot-tall perennial was introduced in 2008 and is available at <a href="http://www.plantdepot.com/site/" title="Plant Depot">Plant Depot</a> in San Juan Capistrano and probably other neighborhood nurseries. <br /> <img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/uploads/sendtiny2.jpg" style="border: 0;" alt="image" width="50" height="46" /><br><br><br><br></p> <h1>Daily Read:</h1><p> <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,480174,00.html" title="Fox News">Fox News</a> - Goodbye Viagra. <i>Scientists have found that gardening, just 30 minutes a day, five days a week, can revitalize a man’s sex drive.</i> </p> </td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td><a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/coupon_spot.jpg" alt="Visit dirtdujour.com" width="225" height="147" border="0" /></a></td> <td style="padding-left: 15px;"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/email_sponsored.jpg" alt="Sponsored" width="219" height="58" /> <h3>Digging for weekly deals:</h3> <p>Just what we need at this time of year: a rubber boot tray 40% off at Ballard Designs.
