beautiful plant... I have only orange this year planted a pack of each and I think the chipmunks ate all but three seeds...and a frost got the others.. what a spring it was! I like the fact that they trail or climb.

The chipmunks eat mine every year, I think the only way to get them going (the seeds) is to do them in pots first. I do not see how they can find all of them!
