I wasn't impressed with these perennial snaps during their first season in our garden (after growing from seed in late winter) - but I think they are coming into their own in this second season. Fuller plants with nicer flowers - I hope they keep on going all season! Late to come back in spring, but at least they proved hardy through their first winter.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following area: back yard island About my plant portraits
- Seed from '03 HPS/MAG exchange. Baggy 70F with light (35%G, 6-9d)
- Same seed as above. Baggy 70F with light (a few G, 6-9d)
Seed may lose viability quickly, based on results above. The seed packet contained black and tan seeds. All germination occurred from the black ones; the tan ones may be unripe.
