What people are saying ...

I just love this plant. It has bloomed since I planted it in May and has not stopped. I even accidentally broke a branch off of it and it is still growing. I am looking forward to buying more in different colors as well as the same color for my yard. I have recommended this plant to several people. The flowers are so large and beautiful color. Very easy to grow. - Sally, MO, Zone 5
