Hi all, A neighbor gave me one Asiatic 'Lollipop' about 3 or 4 years ago, in spring.
This variety multiplies quickly as you can see in the pic taken this year.
One note: DO NOT put the any part of it in the compost pile. I'm told they carry a virus or something you don't want to spread. Toss the dead growth in the trash, in the fall.
Also keep an eye out for those pesky red beetles that eat the leaves. This is one of the only flowers that I have to spray.
With all that I still recommend them, real easy and some are very fragrant.
