I got these in a perennial wild flower mix and this year they came up. Just beautiful! I am going to order the violet dames rocket for another spot in my yard.

I have a part shade area in the back of our property. I sprinkled the seeds over the large area and the seeds all took! I can't wait to see them blossom next year!
