Thanks Mindshift. Usually the Ladybird Johnson wildflower center and the Missouri Botanical Garden are the first sites I go to, but I was also wondering if anyone had a personal experience with the plant. I live just north of Dallas. I'm thinking about putting it in an area that gets some morning and early afternoon sun and shade the rest of the day? I'll have to do a lot of amending because that area has the worst clay soil in my garden because it's only been amended one time years ago. I also thought about possibly growing it in a dappled shade but it probably wouldn't thrive there? I'll keep everyone posted once I get my soil in order.

I have it and I'm in clay in full sun. "Native TX PLants" by Wasowski says

sand , loam, clay, calcareous; well drained, part shade, full sun

I'm North of Dallas also

Thanks abarbie4me2. Did you add any amendments to the area?

No, When I was originally planting all my natives years ago; my phylosophy was if it lives it lives. After all it's a native. (Lost a lot of plants that way). So it had to be a tough plant to survive but would probably have done much better and grown faster if I had amended the soil.

Thanks for telling me that. I'll probably amend the soil a little to break up the compacted soil.
