I'd like to hear from anyone who's actually GROWN this plant. I'm more interested in it as an ornamental than as a veggie. Some sites I've Googled imply this plant is a tender perennial if overwintered in a frost-free area. Is this true? How large are the flowers? How long a growing season does it require to set viable seed? What are its' specific sun/water/soil requirements?
Please DON'T respond unless you have hands-on experience with this plant, preferably in Zone 7.
