I grow the dwarf yellow and orange ones every year - they reseed readily
and are very pretty. The foliage is not as deeply cut and lacy as the
tall varieties, though, which brings me to my word of caution. Their
seedlings look remarkably like ragweed - and I've lost quite a few
seedlings to overzealous weeding before remembering what I've scattered
where.
