When you buy seed you don’t get them fresh so you have to break the dormancy with a period in the fridge first. I think Jayne tried with the same rubbish results @jaynehynesburton

Yes they say to divide them every few years but I've left mine to become bigger clumps. I've got 2 of them. I have a few other orange and yellow ones which are in their first full year from very tiny plants. Hoping I can divide those in a couple of years and spread them around a bit. No winter protection needed either but I mulch with horse manure which feeds for the following year 😀
