It's a very nice but short lived perennial.  It also seeds itself around a bit.  I'd say go for it!
 

All I ask ... is a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

We want our customers to have the opportunity to see where the plant species we provide grow wild, without human assistance. Furthermore, the maps indicate states and provinces where a species is native and those where it has been naturalized beyond its native range.

BONAP continues to update their immense database and considers these maps to be drafts. Nonetheless, these maps are complete enough to be of great value to any native plant gardener, conservationist or restorationist.
