  1. Very pretty! How large does it get in your garden? Did you find it locally or did you have to forage afar for it?

    1. Seen in a neighbor's garden nearby--I saw it for sale at a local garden center and almost went for it, but didn't. I'm not sure where I'd put it--and then there's the drought. Xeric plants still need water to get established.
