Hi Jiffy what all colors do they come in? I added them to my list. Of course I think everyone knows I want a 4 season garden. And I'll keep at it until I get there. So far it's just been getting something in the garden and I'll worry about the placement and bloom times later. Not the best way to do it mostlikely but at least something is getting done.
