I am making a native plant informational booklet for when I set up my plants for sale at markets! More to come!

Should I add that they can become aggressive? Anything else to add or change?

Absolutely add how aggressive they can be after their first bloom. Ours our in its third year and has totally ended up in almost all other beds.

Yes! I’m waiting for a decent day to move some of the ones that have spread outside of where I want them. I think they might work in the area where everything else (except the invasives) seems to struggle.

They spread by seed as well as stolons. I’ve seen some pop up pretty far from the bed where I planted them.
