You can add Colorado to your map. I live on the front range of Colorado (along the foothills up against the Rockies) at 5660 elevation 40th parallel. They are the showpiece of my garden. They dint crowd out the other flowers though I grow mostly roses as it’s hot and dry here. Perfect Xeriscape flower. They show off my Knock out roses to perfection.

Thank you for the very informative video! Do you know the best way to harvest the seeds? My yard is full of them and I would love to collect the seeds. It is a gorgeous ground cover and wonderful for the pollinators and birds.

yes, it's so good for the eco system and can easily be pulled if areas not wanting it to spread bc no tap root it's awful when people kill nature kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3SvZoebqcxliZYsi=zQzC5DqTyx7QZLMB
