I have it gowing and its one of my favoutite plants.I didnt know anything about it but picked it up when they were liquidating in late Sept. It wintered well and was full of flowers and now I am getting a second bloom.

I saved a few seeds and will see if I can get a few more plants started.

Karen, thank you aswell !!
Brendall, it is a very beautiful plant to have around, and will spread on it's own if you let it.
It blooms for almost all summer long, and I just love it.
Where I am at it grows about 3 feet high.
