Professional Growing Information Beautiful, easy, no maintenance. Grew so big in half shade area under a maple facing north east side, with a few hours of sun in zone 5a. Planted with fertilizer at time of planting only. Combined with patriot hostas with matching bloom colors, when the hosta’s blooms came out. So soft and romantic. LOVED IT and will be repeating this year X 3. Will also try planting them in full shade this summer. Crossing my fingers, hope it works…

I have 3 of these plants and they are just beautiful. They are very low maintenance and bloom over and over again. They are covered in blooms! I keep them in mostly shade but they do get the morning sun. They can stand the 100 degree temps just fine and dont even droop or wilt. I have received many compliments from neighbors and this is one of my favorites.
