Jerry & Clarence,
Yes, Jerry BUSY BEING BLUE is quite popular here. Large, sky blue
flowers with darker venation throughout. Early to mid-season. Very
popular with my walkin visitors. Hybridized by the late Jim Mcwhirter.
Hope it's not tender in colder climates. Anyone growing it in colder
locations?
