I put this plant out in the spring. I made this picture in Aug. 2003. It has bommed and when I though it had stopped, it supprised me and was blomming at frost. Not sure it will survive the winter. Hope so. BJ1936

This Brazillian native performs well on the Oregon coast as seen here at the Shore Acres Park outside of Coos Bay. This is probably the northern most limit of this rare plant.
