Did you know that most of the moms in the garden center are actually perennial? Save yourself some money and plant yours in the ground and they’ll come back for you every year as long as you live in zones five through nine. They need a full sun location with well drained soil.

Through spring and summer it’ll be a mounded green plant and the flowers will open in late September October in Chicago.
