Author's Notes | I grew this in a pot during the summer of 2015. It looked great just with the bluish foliage and was covered with flowers when in bloom. Bought some scrappy looking ones at and end of the season sale. Planted in a group of three and looking forward to their bloom in 2016. Have been very hardy. Needs some water during periods of dryness (2019) |
