Sadly Betsy I ended up losing mine last year. They dried out too much and finally couldn't recover. I wish I could have saved some cuttings or seeds for you. The nursery where I got them from stopped selling plants and that's where I got a lot od my native plants. Sad

Oh, that's too bad, Cameron.

I've never seen any here in Houston area for sale. I'll have to search online then.

Betsy I had one growing in full shade and the other in part sun. I thought they would have been more drought tolerant? I guess my soil was too dry?

Ordered seeds through Etsy so I'm looking forward to growing them.
@TexasBluebonnet, how are they doing for you?

Mine is doing well. This is its second summer. Just planted seeds from it, hoping they start growing soon.
