Wonderful,Dd..I presume it's not hardy,if you take it in every winter,or is it just a precaution ?

Bloomer no it is not reliably hardy, in the South it still needs warmth and protection....I just did not want to risk it, years ago we would have grown this here without a problem, but, after the last few unpredictable winters, no way!!
Feverfew thanks, it is a lovely shrub....

I really like this shrub! It has such a profusion of flowers.

The large shrubs here have been blooming since early January and they're still in full bloom.

Here's how it grows here in San Diego, CA.
