You can try it but they will just be a one-and-done annual, unless you dig them up and bring them in before a frost/freeze.

Also, they’re ‘clover’ so they can become invasive if you plant them directly in the ground. Think of all the ‘clover’ probably already in your lawn. If you or your spouse are crazy about a well-kept lawn, I’d avoid it.

Third, they’re toxic if eaten, so if you have pets that eat them, that would be a bad thing. :(

Me? I’d just enjoy them as a houseplant and toss when they poop out, or follow instructions to revive them the following year. They’ll last a couple of years with proper care:

Thanks - looks like it would not be a good idea to plant it outside. I’ll just keep it going inside until it decides to go bye-bye.

PS - Appreciate your good information!
