These were at there best. They didn't bloom last year but not long after this picture was taken most of the leaves started to die, mostly on the bottom, but on top as well. They had a few flower stalks this spring in their new location but they soon flopped over, with lots of foliage dying. I think the advice on low water and mulch should help a lot.
The impression I've gotten from some of the pics is of larger, more robust foliage. But if I can get them to appear as they do in the photo I'll be very happy. Thanks for all the help!
