I purchased two of these in small containers, planted them and now they’re huge! They’ve completely filled and overflowed a 16” pot with plenty of flowers. Watered daily and fertilized monthly. I did have to move this closer to the house so it would get shade earlier. Texas in August is hard.

Take flowers that start blooming early and keep on until late fall, then add a mounding/trailing habit and unique color blooms. The result is a series that fills hanging baskets and containers with masses of color, they are also wonderful as a groundcover in shady areas.
