I nearly Killed that COT plant.... But it is so different that I do like it very much.... Thanks for the imput... I should tell you that I really don't know how to care for that plant . What can I do to improve it??
Last few months I went in and had Gull Bladder surgery and two months before that I had knee surgery as I tore my muscle around the knee cap by tripping and falling down in the garden last fall. The GOLDEN AGE IS NOT TOO GOLDEN MORE LIKE BROWN TO ME!! Ha ha..... I do hope you get this message... I actually have been looking for you for quite a long time here! Nice you are back... Hugs Jan

I live in Montana on the Hi-line so our growing is Zone 3, we can grow some zone 4 plants depending the area you live in and if we have an open winter or not. zone 4 plants like that snow cover helps protect them.
