I planted this two years ago and it is terrific. This variety is a "Great Plant Pick" for the Pacific Northwest, but I worried my clay might be a problem. I put it in full sun on a slope in some rocks in my horrid clay soil. It blooms for at least 4 months nonstop, and the Hummingbirds like it. I water it about once every month when it does not rain, but it never wilts or seems to suffer (It's from California, after all). I have not seen any seedlings, and it is a clumper not a runner. It emerges late in the spring.
