Can anyone tell me anything about a plant named Otacanthus...Little Boy Blue. I bought one recently at a bargain sale but do not know how big it will grow etc.

| Common name here is brazillian snapdragon. They are a great perennial and mine stay around 2ft or so. Of course I'm always cutting the flower sprays off for the house. When the plants get too straggly looking I sometimes "butcher" them quite severely, but they bounce back with lots of new growth. Very easy to start from cuttings. |

| Thanks for that info. Does yours grow in full sun? |

| Does anyone know where I can purchase an Otacantus? I would prefer mail order. |
