    • These are a BEE MAGNET!! Sun lovers! Great color. They've been riding the roller coaster we call "late-summer-careening-into-fall" weather we have here in Berks County (7A), Pa without flinching. I got 2 pots in late July and I've just transferred them into my fall pots because they are still going strong. Got more for some other fall pots as well. I'm hoping PW develops other colors in this line. Might try them in my pollinator bed late next summer, too!

    • I grew this plant in 2021. Fell in love with it. Will be growing it again next year. Tried it in a flower bed, going to try it a pot next year.

    • Beautiful plant. I bought them at home depot and planted them in early July in Kentucky. They looked sad for a couple weeks, but they came back and continued to bloom until the first hard freeze in Fall. I got frequent compliments from neighbors.
