This was a small plant last year when I bought it and planted it. I didn't like where it was so I was going to move it and never could decide where to put it so it sat in a plastic pot all winter. Since I wasn't crazy about it, I really kinda' neglected the poor thing. This spring I decide to plant the poor naked thing. Put it in full sun, a little mushroom compost, and occasional Miracle Gro and this is what I got! Amazing! It also gets a good bit of water with the irrigation.

It's not blooming as profusely as it was, but there are plenty of buds. Here's a picture of more of the plant. You can see in both pictures the brown pods I'm assuming are seed pods. Also, it's bushier since I trimmed it. There've been so many pods that I was even throwing some away when I snipped them. Now I'll send some to Alice, Sandy and anyone else that wants some.
