You got it!
And--you will have 100's of seeds from just one plant--IF you are vigilant about picking them.

AND--beings they are not really hardy in out area--you can dig up the root and keep it dormant for the winter.
Then, in mid-spring--throw some dirt on it, water it a little--and patiently wait to see new green growth.
Then re-pot it in your garden--and stand back!!!!

1--Close-up of flowers. They are never the same.....
2--a one-year old root system dug up. The stems will wither and drop off over the winter.
3--Close-up of a seed. If you don't get them--they will roll off and fall to the ground.
