Help what is this?

I lost the tag and can't even remember what it is?

Hi Carol,

I'm pretty sure that is Cleome. It isn't really a perennial but self seeds so profusely that it comes back every year. The hummingbirds really like them

It's very pretty....and so delicate looking!

[Carol W]

Thank you Chris, that's it! No wonder I could never figure out what it was as I was looking under-searching perennials.

"and so delicate looking!" the flower is but it stands it's ground even in the toughest wind storm.

So it's small but mighty, huh?

I love this plant. I had some one year, but the dogs got into them LOL.
The common name is Spider Flower

Joan it's not small!

Wow! It sure isn't small! The other view was deceiving, wasn't it?
