Author Message   Mike_in_chicago  Supporting Member My Garden Posted on Wednesday, May 02, 2007 - 09:23 pm EST :    I don't know what it is. My sister gave me seed for it years ago and it has spread rapidly in my vegetable garden area. Its appeal is its dwarf form (a nice mound no more than 8" tall), short stems, blue-ish foliage and the two-tone flower. This is the one I was referring to in Karma's thread earlier. Anyone who can identify it or who wants seeds will happily get mailed a few billion.

Do you know the name of it?
