@springcolor Your Shockwave picture was so pretty. I just got mine last year as a small plant, and though it was growing good, it didn't bloom last year. I wanted to show how pretty the full plant was and your picture was a lovely example.
@Onewish1, I'm sorry you didn't have any luck with Becky Towe. I remember how disappointed I was when I bought Harlequin and it didn't do well so I understand your frustration. I've been able to buy it as a small plant at a nursery here for under $4.00 so it's kind of like buying an annual. It doesn't take long to take off and it is so colorful a lot of the summer so I thought it was worth it.
