I'm trying my luck, I;m just hoping it decides to flower early enough so that winter doesn;t hit it hard. This is a nice protected spot in the ground to stay insulated too.

Thanks you Lincslass and MikeC. If i don't get flowers at least let it survive through to try next year.

They are light violet, a classic aster color I'd say. I love how that shade glows in the evening. Chrispook has some nice big ones in her garden that I love. This should bloom as night returns and says it can live through winter. We shall see. :-)
