This
is a rather unusual plant from asia that seems to be gaining popularity all
over the world. I first saw this plant in Scott Ogden's garden after a trip
to Argentina where he saw them used quite extensively in public gardens. He
gave me gigantea and i have divided it twice and it looks great. This
fall the butterfly action was incredible.

have seen in this area. Denver botanical has just recently introduced several
varieties which probably will have some trouble in such a xeric environment
