I now have a pot of them in total shade and they are finally happy. They also didn't appreciate our hellfire heat wave and I'm surprised they're still alive.

They always grew bright fuschia and yellow four o' clocks. I haven't grown them for a long time, but I should do so next year. They really are very pretty.<br />Hugs, BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792341123595520130noreply@blogger.com
