Hi Loph, boy that's a new one for me. I have never seen those before. I bet they look really nice mass planted. Do they only come in the one colour? The long seed pods are very attractive too. Very nice....Linda

Hi Broots -

Yeah, they're wild in Japan, so only one color. But it's a nice tangerine!
And as you say, mass plantings are best.

They're perfectly hardy here, but you're about 3 or 4 zones north. I could send you seeds in September if you want to try them....
