Star series Spacing: 10-12" Height: 14-16" Exposure: full sun to very light shade A loyal and reliable performer in our summer heat, and once established has no problems with infrequent watering. Definitely close to the top of the "Drought Tolerant Annuals" list, and works well in both residential and commercial settings. The individual flowers are fairly small, but what was the Shakespeare quote from the movie "Seabiscuit"? Something like "Though he is small, he is fierce". This plant, along with violas for the winter, fits that quote to a tee. |
