Does anyone know about Million Bells? They're gorgeous but a bit finicky. I read they're perennials but I'm not sure if that's true. All the flowers have fallen off mine-- don't know whether to cut them back or what.
Ideas anyone?
:shrug:
P.S. They're in containers...

1. You can cut them back and fertilize and they will rebloom |
|
I live in NE Oklahoma (zone 6b or 7) and if the winter is not too bad they will be green all winter. I have had them reseed themselves also.

2. I don't seem to have much luck with them |
|
I've tried a few times to plant them in hanging planters, but they don't seem to do well. I prune and fertilize to no avail. I have much better luck with petunias. I tried Tidal Wave Silver this year and it looks fantastic.
