This plant is in the middle of my butterfly garden. All the other plants are deceased due to frost, but this little fellow is hanging in there. Not as many blooms as in the summer but none the less, still blooming.

About the size of a quarter.

It is kind of thin and stringy and wants to lay over. I had to tie it to a piece of bamboo to keep it held up. It grows to a height of about 2 ft. Lots of stems.
