I tried several other colors, but haven\'t found them to be robust growers.
In fact, a couple died. A pink one is still a runt after several years and has never bloomed. A cultivar called \'Bicolor\' has bloomed for me. It\'s supposed to be half white, half blue. But the white looked awfully muddy to me. But it\'s only a young plant so might look better as it matures? The standard blue/lavender ones are vigorous to the point of having to be reigned in, so I\'ve been disappointed by my experience with other colors. Here\'s a picture of A x cammarum Bicolor.
