I am hanging in...I have been "doing" too much, so tonight has been kind of bad...but I am getting ready to lie down and pray I will have more energy to do more planting in the morning...lol My stokesia are just beautiful and yes Mike they do get bigger every year, I have some that are between three and four feet accross and they have so many blooms on them...they are one of my favorite flowers. If you cut the spent stalks off when they are done blooming, it will sometimes encourage more to shoot up, mine will bloom into the Fall. Here is picture of my first ones. I had two mounds and now I have dozens, and so do many of my friends and family, just from those two original Mamas...lol They seed easily and will grow in full sun to partial shade...great in front of the borders!
