    Few plants in recent years have created such a stir as this one, made famous by Adrian and Alan Bloom's North American Blooms of Bressingham marketing program. Noted for its fine, fern-like variegated foliage, it seemed that everyone wanted this plant in 1999. We have found the plant to be much better suited to containers than to variable conditions in the ground, and many gardeners in Southern California have reported that this is especially true south of Santa Barbara. Blue-violet, bell-shaped flowers appear in summer though this selection seems to be less free-flowering than the species. Plant in full sun along the coast, afternoon shade elsewhere, and provide regular garden water. Fully hardy to below 0F, though plants become completely dormant under extreme conditions. Garden origin.
