It goes out of bloom for a while in mid July here (Westen New York State) but begins to bloom again later in the summer. A true miniature with even the tiny leaves in scale. Grows quickly and soon there are more than enough to go just about everywhere at the front of the border. |

I keep the seed pods from forming because I get all the plants I need and then some just by dividing the plants. No problem with pests, drought tolerant. The deer don't seem to like it. Masses of bright cheerful blooms. |
