I bought this at Lowe's and put it in a container with an anemone for mother's day in May. The peach color with the blueish anemone looked beautiful. I visited in October and the peachy keen was still blooming and filled out the pot nicely even after the anemone faded. Fantastic!

Great performer in the ground and in containers. They spread amazingly in the ground and filled in beautifully in my containers. These plants bloom like crazy! I have occasionally deadheaded them but a few of them that have been neglected in the ground seem to be performing just as well without deadheading. I will definitely be using them again.
