Hello,
I have just purchased two of these plants. Does anyone have any experience with them? They have very interesting foliage and say they bloom all summer. (I was sold)
This is what the tag says:
Durable, long-lived perennial grown for its spikes of showy pink flowers on red stems from summer to fall. Tolerates high heat and humidity. Ideal for borders, mass plantings or naturalized areas.
3-4' tall 3' wide
I have just discovered that the white ones are also called Whirling Butterflies. Hardy to -20 F. I can't find anything on the Siskiyou Pink variety.
In one of my books I found a white variety and it says you can propigate it from cuttings or seeds.
I am considering getting more, but would like to hear from someone that has some experience with them.
