Leawood gardener I admire your hard work with those Bananas! I wanted to try one if I heard enough people in cold zones say they've had success. Can I ask whether your soil is clay or sandy?
Marlina another gorgeous garden! Very bright and cheery. : )
I had some Butterfly Blue come back this year. I started them from seed though. I think they are definitely a short lived perennial or biennial. Mine flowered the first year from seed. And actually I liked them better the first y better than this year. They got way taller this year and ended up flopping over. I think what happens with store bought ones is they are already at least two years old when you get them, so at the end of their life.
Here it is a month ago... all flopped over
