Mature will get to a Height of 3 to 5 feet with a spread of 2 to 4 feet, however I put mine in a large, cement container and in our planting zone (central Pennsylvania) it's considered an annual plant, in warmer states it's perennial. In that same planting area I have Geraniums for the red, White Begonia for the white, Laguna Sky Blue (Lobelia) for the blue. I really like it!

What a lovely combination!

How exciting!!! Don't forget to post progress photos! I have totally enjoyed the entire process. I am planting mine in fabric grow bags, is that what you are doing too?

YES!!! I decided to try that out, since putting them in the yard might draw too much attention from the pups.

Awesome!! We can compare notes on use of grow bags We were under tornado warning in my little Pennsylvania town last night, awful weather night, thankfully my first plant survived the storms. The rest go out this weekend. I bought $9 baby pools to sit the grow bags in so that they will water from below, just something that I read, this is all very new to me

Lovely arrangements! We love succulents too and only today I discovered our first sempervivum flower this year!

Smart! I bet Joey will enjoy the pools too!

regarding the grow bags, do you put them anywhere on soil/grass or on a hard surface?

LOL I am HOPING that she will leave them alone Yes, any surface is fine. I am putting in the baby pools to try a different watering method. The first grow bag that I did I put directly behind a large ornamental grass at the front of the house (others will be in the back, morning sun and no one can see them LOL) and directly on the mulch.

BEAUTIFUL!!! If I find that I was successful starting tomatoes from seeds I MIGHT need to research succulents !!! There are beautiful!

Finally some rooted veggies are coming out. We have late winters as you all know which basically our flowers are mature yet. all produce are from seeds. But everything is getting there.

Looks very promising! And what a gorgeous cherry tree! Are those potato plants in the bags?

I recognise some of your flowers; I also have a pasque flower plant and some fuchsias (although not in bloom yet). It's so inspiring to see gardens from other parts of the world! I hope the weather will be ok here the next few days so I can plant out my tomatoes and flower plants.

Succulents I think are better to buy plants - I have a feeling they are quite slow to grow from seeds (but I might be wrong). The good thing with sempervivum, for instance, is that once you have a plant you can soon divide it.

I saw these pasque flowers at a client’s house and just loved them. Was first time I’ve seen them n took a photo of it. I started looking for them all over Alberta. Only one nursery had them n was only 3 left. I snatched all 3. Lost 2 but this one is strong enough now n will split it up. Had no room for my tomatoes plants. Why I put them in buckets. It’s original lol.

Yes potatoes in the bags.
