My first PW order. Thought it was a little expensive but has developed VERY well and looks GREAT! No regrets. Used in large container w/calla lily and caladium which are just coming up.

This variety does not do well in full shade. It can be grown in shallow water 2-3 in. deep. Possibly hardier than zone 5 with winter protection (mulch and protect from windy areas) If plants look tattered in early spring, cut them back to the ground. The new foliage will quickly fill back in.
