Very pretty, wish I could grow them here.  Getting zone 5 to overwinter here is pretty tough, but some seem hardier.

Those are really pretty.  Not much since in me dreaming about flowers.  My part time job with FULL time hours seems like it will take much of my yard time away.  Hopefully by then, I will be working just part time hours.

Yes Tink that's them! and yes that looks like about what I paid, but at the time I didn't care what they cost I just wanted them. Go for it!
Very pretty, wish I could grow them here.  Getting zone 5 to overwinter here is pretty tough, but some seem hardier.
Go for it Marla, This is mines first winter but they are very hardy! So in a month or two I'll know just how hardy?
I'm just happier outside!

I see them for half that price at local nurseries. They aren't rare. I'd look around before ponying up for Wayside's high prices for small plants.
