| I think I spelled that right. I really like this plant and want more of it in my garden. I have been buying plants from Bluestone but now they don't have the 3-packs any more so it's not as economical as it was. I have been looking for seeds for this plant to winter sow and have been unable to find any. Does anyone know where I can order some seeds for this plant? |

| Won't you have your own seedlings in Spring? I've grown c. White Cloud and still have it here and there in my beds, I stopped saving seed because I was pulling so many self sown seedlings without sowing more. Tried the c. Blue Cloud but it was more aggressive, different habit, and spread through seeding and running - there wasn't room for it where I had placed it after a couple of years and that was moved to my neighbors hillside. Chilterns offers the Blue Cloud, lots of time to receive from them, I haven't placed my own annual order yet. But, I suspect you're going to have your own seedlings to move around this spring if you did not deadhead your plants. |

| I have 'Blue Cloud' seeds if you're interested. |

| I grow this plant. It's very tough - I gave half of it a 'haircut' with the riding mower and it was still going. I did divide it this year and moved them both to a new location. It may not get a much drainage as before. We'll see how that works out. I have never had mine reseed - but I use lots of mulch. BTW - I probably won't order much from Bluestone any more either. I have always been very happy with my purchases, but I don't like the expense of one larger plant. Penny |

| Thanks everyone for you input. Jaynine I would love some seeds and sent you an email. This is a tough little plant - the blazing New Mexico sun can be hard on things. It bloomed non-stop from spring thru frost. I am mixing it up with catmint which also does very well in my garden. I'll keep my eyes out for seedlings but I mulch heavily also to conserve moisture. |
