I agree with Boyd. Mine is in the front row. When I first saw RAM bloom my jaw dropped at such a large elegant bloom with the white on the tip of the petals. Ram will always be in my garden.
I ordered Ram in the fall and it's in a pot on my deck. I'm hoping it will bloom this season. Glad to hear the reports that it is short. I will put in the front row of a bed on the front side of the house.
I planted Ram in the Spring of 2021. It didn't do anything much except survive. The following Spring it still only had 2 fans. This summer, Ram produced two blooms. In the Fall, it still only had 2 fans. So not exactly showstopping, although the two blooms were nice. Hoping for more next year.
