1/11/26 – Baby Bear must have had a rough year, it have very few flowers compared to last year. It’s now grown much, so maybe still getting settled.
12/20/25 – Still not much growth but the plant looks very healthy. This only gets 4-5 hours of sun in the summer, so maybe that’s also a factor.
7/12/25 – Planted this 1 year ago. It has not grown much in that time but it sure did put on a nice flower show last year for such a small plant.
1/4/25 – flowers turning pinkish on the Baby Bear. Hummingbirds were checking these out today, I think they approve of the new addition.
12/31/24 – Baby Bear seems to have LOTS of flowers
12/29/24 – Flowers are just about to open up
Planted 7/13/24
