These are polka dot plants. Do great in the shade and then you can pot some up for the house in winter.

They are really a pretty plant. I used to grow them as house plants but somehow forgot they can be a garden plant too. Thanks for the reminder!

I'll have to try a few in the shade, mine are in full south GA sun, and grow huge..Are they a pest for you? Here they re-seed to a point of being a pest..I have the pink, white and red..

They are supposed to be annuals, but they always get killed to the ground and come back from the root, and also re-seed like crazy..
