Professional Growing Information I bought this on impulse for a deck container that gets about 4 hours of sun. This has been a showstopper mixed in with coleus, impatiens and Creeping Jenny. I will be looking for it again next year!

An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.
Take flowers that start blooming early and keep on until late fall, then add a mounding/trailing habit and unique, yellow-throated blooms. The result is a new series that fills hanging baskets and containers with masses of color, and wonderful as a groundcover in shady areas.
Better Homes and Gardens listed Catalina White Linen as one of 20 Top New Annuals (& Warm-Climate Perennials) of 2008.

flowers profusely though one almost died due to dry condition for a day too long. It says on the site not to dead head, but i wish it said more, as there about bulbs on each plant now. do i let them go to seed? if i trim might it flower again?

I love this plant!! It blooms into December and even if a frost kills it, they come back every year! Beautiful and easy to maintain.

I planted this last year (summer 07) and didn't really know anything about it. Took a chance anyway and it was the show stopper in my garden. Everyone wanted to know what it was and how to get it. I highly recommend this plant.
