    One of my favorite mail orders ever

    I ordered two of these. They’re in a warm and sunny location with shade towards evening. They were a really great performer in my garden last year. I got lots of blooms and just when I would think they were done I had more. Over winter they stayed green and they have doubled in size. zone 7B
