Super PlantI purchased these late in the season, so it was already hot and dry. When they arrived I thought "Wow, I wasted my money" they were very small and spindly. Did they ever surprise me. They had filled in all the bare places and are blooming their hearts out. I love them and will purchase more next year.

No germinationGot like 20 seeds. Work in a facility with an actual greenhouse. BS in horticulture, and still no luck growing. Send me more and better seed I'll give you a better review. Thanks.

Tall & AiryThis is a go-to for the back of the border, or where you'd like height to delineate an area without closing it in. Heat tolerant and reseeds.

Love these!I have grown these in the past and am excited to get more. They reseed here with enough snow cover. What a treat to see the blossoms appear above spent mid summer perennials. They have no problems and are a sweet addition to a vase of flowers.

Great as a fillerPurple flowers on top of stems light and airy. Need to have shorter plants in front of verbena to hide bare stems - preferably with yellow or red flowers - these colors "pop" when placed in the same flowerbed with the verbena. Blooms last for months. Not bothered by insects or small critters.
