Friends, Even in the extreme climate of Kansas City, this species usually go from seed to bloom in about a year. Seedlings are planted out when easily separated and divided. By their second fall most will bloom and get bigger in subsequent years, but they seem short lived or is it my climate ? Even so they can reach to 6 ft plus .
