What people
are saying ...
I
just love this plant. It has bloomed since I planted it
in May and has not stopped. I even accidentally broke a
branch off of it and it is still growing. I am looking
forward to buying more in different colors as well as
the same color for my yard. I have recommended this
plant to several people. The flowers are so large and
beautiful color. Very easy to grow. - Sally, MO, Zone 5
