    small plant but pretty

    Posted by goldengirl on Feb 17, 2020

    I have this growing in a garden planter out where the sprinkler system can't reach to water it. the plant does great with very little care or attention, and of course the bugs in the area love the flowers. I just wish the plant was bigger. I should have read more about the plant before buying it. overall 4 stars.
