Homeowner Growing Tips

Plant in full sun. Grow in moist, well-drained, moderately fertile soil. Dislikes heavy soil, which may cause it to rot over winter.

uneven blooms

Planted in full sun and the blooms have been relatively uneven but the plant seems to be hearty. Nice color.
The real test will be if they bloom this next spring.

Highly Recommended

Very pleased with this selection due to its shorter height that fits with my garden scheme. The foliage is very pretty.

healthy

My plants were shipped across country to Oregon in two boxes. the only hitch was that the shipping company decided to put the boxes on different trucks. Despite that the plants all arrived in good condition, due largely to the care taken in preparing them for shipping at Romence.
These plants have done very well in my garden and have reached full size this season.
