I'm not, as a rule, fond of glads but those look quite beautiful. :) When you say 'mini' is that because they don't grow as tall as normal glads?

they seem to be a little shorter, thinner stemmed and smaller and fewer blooms/stem
Okay thanks.
Just found this and quite tempted:

(http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y253/nonrancher/IMG_1825.jpg)These were called "Blue glads" in the catalogue which they are certainly not. Funny thing, they exactly matched the color of the lambs'ears and the "Uproar Rose" zinnias I happened to plant right beside them. Just can't trust those catalogues when they say "blue".
