There is one clump in the garden, and it flowers every year by self seeding. It is usually treated as a garden biennial, seed sown the first year producing flowering plants the second year. Very pretty and it comes in several colors. I must make a larger area for some more plants. The original plant came in a package of wild flower seed, which was planted about five years ago.
