Absolutely spectacular blue and white stripes highlighted by yellow centers! The large, fragrant flowers keep coming from mid spring to early summer, then it goes dormant in summer, but blooming starts again with cooler fall weather. It's happy in a pot or in the ground, and is very long-lived if given humusy and freely draining soil and kept evenly moist. Best in morning sun and afternoon shade. Butterflies love the nectar!
