The color combination is stunning. I hane some in a hanging basket. I was not sure where to plant them so I moved them around this summer until they looked happy. Under what sunlight conditions are they growing? Nice photo.

Those are a really nice display. Did you trim them to look mounding or is it just the photo or do they grow that way??? Three questions in one! And I read that they reseed too. Nice contrast with the red. I imagine they would look good next to blue blooms too. Thanks for the picture.

No, I did not trim them. They grow in a mound form and yes, they do reseed. This one is the seed from the previous plant.I just let it grow with my scarlet sage plants.
