Then a neighbor's plant sent a seed over to my side of the (non-existent) fence, and I transplanted the resulting plant down to my parking strip. Now I think it had a baby too! They are so weird and alien looking, but the flowers are so incredible.

My current favorite is the new variety called "Bonfire". It is low growing and a chameleon, changing colors throughout the seasons to a deep burgundy in fall. I also have a lovely variegated one (sorry the name of the variety escapes me).
