Sentimental Blue Balloon Flower is a dwarf that is very drought tolerant and prefers growing in well-drained soils and plenty of sunshine. The hot air balloon like flower buds open to true-blue, star-shape flowers. A unique and colorful plant for the rock garden or in well-drained container plantings.
