I love this one too, having a few more is always a good thing! :P
IC, a small portion of mine also reverted to all green so i dug it up and took off the greenie and planted it elsewhere. Just glad all of it didn't do that. Guess you have an excuse to buy 2 more, just in case it decides to revert again, you'll have back up....hows that for rationalizing? :roll:

Yes! I've had Jack Frost for many years and I just love it. For me it's virtually maintenance free except for a 30-second cleanup in the fall after the leaves have gone down from frost.

Everyone should have one of these in their gardens :)

Thanks for the photo :)
