I've been back and forth to Earthworks and ebay, and I still want to hear more about these--I used to see them in stores all the time when I was little and always thought they as fantasy flowers, the big puffy ones are so girly. But by the time I started gardening over the last five years or so I'd forgotten about them because I hadn't seen them in so long. From what I've searched out they've remained popular on the West Coast. At least, the nurseries that sell them seem to all be over there, I suppose because they're all hardy in CA.
How do you make a big pretty basket (maybe 10"-12")? Is it one plant or more than one? What kind of food?
