Hurray! We have a winner! Congratulations, Danita! Thumbs up As you say, this is a stunning plant. I'm sure it will be very popular, once more gardeners become aware of it. One important thing to remember is that this is a tall plant when mature, so be sure to allow enough room. Mine grew to three feet this year, and I've heard from other gardeners that it often gets even taller than that. And I love the bonus that the blossoms and stems are easily dried for incorporation into dried arrangements.
