We both have them seed around. I don't as much as she does because I deadhead a lot, but I do have them coming up in other places of the yard, not near the parent plants. They are easy to pull, or dig and give Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-47252662070257275572009-06-28T10:14:59.404-04:002009-06-28T10:14:59.404-04:00Hi Carol!

Too bad I would like some more of it. After seeing your varigated Heliopsus I think I will have to seek it out. I like varigations in the garden since there is so much green here.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.com
