Thank you guys. It is really a wonder, great foliage showy tall flowers. It has added a whole other dimension to the bed for sure. :-)

I grow these but they always wilt in the sun, do yours?

We don't have the most powerful sun, but it doesn't wilt. Generally I think they like part to all shade and damp. I can put shade lovers almost in full sun with my east exposure and our northern sun. Even on the hot days, it held up very well. I'd say east sun if any is best for them in the lower latitudes. Maybe its position need to change?

Yes I think you could be right there.

Thanks you Sim. That sounds lovely. I'll have to look into it. May have to dedicate a new bed if I find one. :-)
