I knew the blue dune would grow high and wide, but I assumed that was just seasonal growth that would originate only from where I dropped it in the ground and could be deadheaded each year. But if it is going to spread into the lawn like in the picture, then blue dune was the wrong choice for the location, and will probably dig them out, before it spreads into the lawn even more. Thanks for any insight you can provide! |
