| Hello from beautiful Kentucky. I planted this lovely blue/purple flower in full sun a few days ago. I've been unsuccessful in finding out what it is, but fear it may not like full sun. Can you help to identify it? Thank you. |

| I tried two in full sun this year to see. They make it with a lot of water, but the shadier ones are much happier. I would trim off the spent flowers and move it....I think it still looks ok, if it gets moved. :) |
