A neighbor has some of these spider flowers and they come up every year I guess from spreading seeds. I purchased two of them as plants last year and when the seed pods appeared in fall I scattered them in the soil, planting some on the surface and some 1/2" deep and some 1" deep. Nothing came up this spring.
Someone at a flower shop told me I have to purchase perennial cleomes and all of the advertising I find says "grows yearly as annual". Climate cannot be an issue here because our homes are right next to each other.
Any feedback? Are there both annual and perennial cleomes or no?
