Great shot.! I've wanted to try this one myself, but it's not hardy here for me.

Thanks Flcrazy. I got mine as a gift last year and it's doing very well here in CA. Although my friend bought one for herself at the same time and hers died. :(

Are they hard to grow Tastey? Do you grow them indoors or out?

I 've found they're very easy to grow, Gilli. It lives outside in a pot with the rest of my brood. I don't give any special attention and the flowers last for quite some time. They come in a variety of colors. Here's a link with info:
