    • Gorgeous plant! The blooms simply glow! Does great as the thriller plant in a mixed container design. Grows and blooms in a lovely rounded shape.

    • I planted three in a bed with Boomerang dwarf lilacs and vincas. They will rebloom if you cut off the "expired" bloom stalks. Mine are on their third flush of blooming. Lovely color.

    • they are very cute little light blue flowers which make the flower bed look soft and peaceful. I'm so glad that I got them home.
