tcs, I grew them last year, both the red and the blue and was really disappointed with them.

I guess yours did alot better than mine did. I had mine in hanging baskets.

I was shocked the blooms were so small. In my mind I expected them to be the size of a 2-3" MG. They seemed to be prone to aphids also, so I was always hosing them down. The few blooms I did get I liked despite all that and I am going to try again. My seedlings last year were really hardy; I haven't planted seeds yet for this year. I did get 21 other flowers, veggies & herbs sown today though :)

....we are also getting rain here
