Hi Moti, I have also got a Blue/purple one, they are beautys arn't they? I was told to protect them last year and also to mark where you planted them, as they die right back and you might dig it up by mistake. I put the white one in the greenhouse, the lilac one was in a tub with other plants so I covered it with a small piece of bu bble wrap and held it down by digging small twigs and I'm glad to say they both survived that cold winter. I saw a lovely purple/blue one, so I now have 3, but they definately flower well.

The blue one i have had for about 8 years and i have never protected it, probably because i forget about it until it appears the next year....Its in the ground, in a raised area, that, i think is why its ok....Yes lovely flowering plants Lins...:>)
