    • I love this low growing plant. I had a "dead" spot that was very shady and nothing wanted to grow. This has been spreading beautifully in that spot.

    • Beautiful and fast growing! I spotted this beauty at my local garden center and picked one up to try. I wish I would have picked up more! This plant is a beauty from its foliage to its blooms. It is currently in a hanging basket and has done well with a good weekly watering. This one will be on my list of must have plants!

    • Love the idea of putting in containers as this plant runs rampant in our garden and I am always having to pull out some of the plants. I'll be having alot of containers this summer with this plant.

    • This has been a wonderful ground cover in my garden. It holds up well in temps over 100 degrees and under 35 degrees. I love this plant and will be buying more of them to fill in bare areas of my garden.
