Probably the showiest of the Biddens family, this species is not historically native to Ontario, with a range that once ended at the southern shores of Lake Ontario. I suspect that these will adapt reasonably to growing in containers, so I’m going to give them a try this summer.
Please check out the Prairie Moon listing at the link above for more details.
