Planted about 4 years ago, and gets dead headed every year. It started out as a multi coloured plant, down to just the one colour now.

Mine haven’t, I’ve been judicious with the dead heading though. May let it go wild this year or collect the seeds.

I tried doing some from seed this year myself, but they aren’t easy seeds to start inside!

You need to cold stratify the seeds for 30 days to get them to bloom. I'm letting mine just go hog wild and seed anywhere
