Name: Lee Anne Stark Brockville, Ontario, Canada (Zone 5a) Perpetually happy!
I've got them in a hanging basket in full sun. They need to be thinned. One per basket or can I get away with more? How old do they need to be to get blooms?
Your welcome, what color will it be, mine was blue and I was dissapointed in the fact the blooms were so small, and did not last very long, I ended up giving it away.

Mine is constantly in bloom and reminds me of a miniature brug. I've had it for a couple years and I keep it in the shade because it burns and stresses too much in our desert sun.
Much like a brug, it grows much faster if I give it more soil to grow in.

Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.

Mine is Iochroma grandiflora.
I kept it in my indoor windowbox one winter and in a cool greenhouse the second. It was top killed when I left it out in 20F weather (after it got whitefly), but came back from the roots. (Eradicated the whitefly, too.)
