Forgive me Chris, I know they are annuals, but in my garden in Oregon N.
alata is a reliable reseeder or will even live over in a mild year.
Shelley, in my humble opinion, I prefer alata to sylvestris hands down for
fragrance and form. Patches at all doorways, decks, etc. are a summer must
for me. They tolerate part shade as well.
