How cool to see you growing one of my region's native plants, it's looks very content and lush in your garden !

Sorry, my mistake ! Yes, it's a great plant to grow for it's brightly colored blooms, and it's also the host plant for the monarch butterfly. So I have to plant it in the back of my flowerbed so you don't notice all the missing leaves, because the caterpillars will strip all the leaves off of it...lol
