Hello Sally!
That is pretty plant with great foliage.

Shall we confess that we have all changed to Volkmann's wicking mix........I don't have many plants in it yet. I am just using the new mix as I go and pot up. It is very very light and wonderful. I don't have any plants in it long enough to really know what the difference will be.

Have to find a picture of something when I post...........this was taken on March8th and she is still blooming great. Cicada gave her to me in a trade last fall and she spent the winter out on the front porch with poly wrapped around the porch.
