Special Notes: High Country Gardens Plant of the Year!

This is a great plant - it is taller than 18 inches for me - more like 24 to 36. The flowers get a bit floppy and I have recently tied t...Read Morehem loosely to a stake to keep it under control. The flowers are just constant and they really add some lovely colour to the area beside my birdbath. I transplanted mine last fall after flowering was finished and they came back in spring with amazing energy. I think this is a very low maintenance and easy plant that gives a great show!
