Anyone successfully growing this in Zone 7-8?
A local outlet has these on sale, at a very good price and I like the flower very much, but am concerned that they would not do well in my Zone.
I have a colony of fall-blooming native Asters in a mostly sunny location, that attracts European Honeybees by the droves and I would like to add a spring and/or summer-flowering perennial to augment those. Does the Mountain Bluets also attract Honeybees? I couldn't find an answer to that question in my search. I did find that they spread, but not sure if that's from seed or spreading rhizomes.
Would late fall be a good time to plant these?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
