Hi Drc, I think mine are having a rest this year!!!, out of 15 I have 1 flowering, and that is only about 6" high, so better luck next year, Derek.

Strangely, mine were far better last year. They haven't missed a year, but last year they were stronger and much fuller.
That said, they are self seeding rather nicely!
