I have used this plant to fill in spaces with perennials and evergreens. I was surprised that such a tiny plant could turn in to looking almost like a small shrub constantly covered in blooms well into December here in Tidewater Virginia. It has grown well in half day sun as well as full sun extremely pleased with the results and have recommended it to others here in VA Beach.
