Hi y'all,
This is my third season with this one. I'm growing it in a 3gl pot. Mine
looks like it might wanna be a shrub this year. Tough plant, tolerant of
heat and humidity, doesn't like a full day of sun on the sandhill I live on,
but does well here 15 mi. from the coast in part sun/shade, produces lotsa
blooms starting mid-summer thru frost, and seems more popular with
butterflies than hummers, based on my observations. Hummers do use it,
though.

I gotta keep it y'all...Ms. Parker hails from Beaufort, SC and named the
plant for her grandson (as I was told.)

Cheers,

gary
