It's lovely. I put mine in a ceramic pot it's been really lovely but there are hardly any flowers now. Where is yours placed?💕💕

Thank you @sharonhayden @midnightgardener they were in a pot last year, it’s now in the south facing front planted by the wall, it’s quite well drained soil there.

@DeborahBanks What about over wintering Deborah? I put mine in a pot because I thought I'd seen they need over wintering 🤔💕💕

@midnightgardener I believe they are hardy but it’s getting too wet that kills them.

@DeborahBanks Yes, you're right about that. I might move mine at some stage 💕💕

@sharonhayden I think they die over winter if they are too wet, they need reduced water when dormant I believe.
