Hi I just thought I would share this photo of the ballerina double purple I have had for three years. It blooms just fine in a pot that is about quart size. I transplant it into a gallon size later in the spring usually and then overwinter it back in the smaller pot and keep semi dry in the garage (just a few windows) It rarely freezes here but last winter it did. I am going to keep it growing and see how long it will last. The only benefit is that it blooms much sooner than the ones I start from seed each year.
