These are absolutely wonderful Peter. What a great show. 👌 Sadly, the few I had died during a particularly wet winter a couple of years ago.

@jeatacake, I had the same problem Jeff so I now grow them in the greenhouse. This has been very successful.

@Diane76 They are lovely Diane. Very easy to grow but they do not like the wet weather, for this reason I grow them in the greenhouse. If grown outside in a rock garden they must be positioned in a sheltered spot and at an angle to allow the rain to run off the plant.
