Tracey---there must be another problem, maybe with your bulb(s) or something else, because Rick, Joe and I applaud it's hardiness and adaptability. I've got them growing in two different gardens. Now, Carol just asked me to order 3 more (Faraway) which she wants to plant by the front door in her display so everyone that comes here can see them up close. By all means, try again, maybe in a different spot.
