Yes, the hard part is getting this plant started. The seeds don't germinate much for me even with heat, and then it takes a while, getting it established. But once it's established, it's great and can even survive the drought when I got tired of watering it much. Winter temps aren't a problem for it here, even in the coldest winters. Really love the blooms!
