I had gotten three of these plants about three or four years ago from a company back east, which was the only place I could find them. I'd had one once before, more than 20 years ago that I got off eBay and I remembered how pretty it was when it bloomed. Well, I planted these three in good soil, but where they only got about 4 hours of sun a day and none in winter. This spring, I dug them up and put them in the garden bed. Two of them I thought were dead, but they surprised me by leafing out this year. They didn't get very far because the marigolds I planted went mutant and grew big enough to shade them again. I took care of that problem this morning and transplanted an 18" marigold to the back of the flower bed. Who knew they got this tall? Anyhoo, the third blue mist started to bloom a couple weeks ago and I think it's gorgeous.
