I used to have the white one, which is more spectacular, but unfortunately the scrub turkeys destroyed it. I recently purchased seeds to start some of these gorgeous plants, but haven't planted them as yet... any advice...? They like a fair amount of water and I put some slow release fertilizer around the base once or twice a year, that's about all. When they finish flowering I leave the flowers on the plant till the seed pods have formed, then just throw the pods into a well shaded moist area of my garden and they self seed quite readily, though can take some months to do so. |

Thank you for the advice, Barbara... Will give them a try... I have both white and black seeds... but, being in Ontario Canada, I'll be attempting to start and raise them in the house... We'll see how it goes... seph |
