This plant struggled from day one regardless of how much attention it received. It just burned like crazy here in my garden in North Texas. We had a very hot and dry summer that started in May with no relief from the heat. I never got to see the beautiful flowers that were pictured. I'm crossing my fingers that next year will bring flowers and beautiful foliage.
