They are stunning! It's difficult to find any real botanical information about this plant because of it's medicinal properties. I've had a number of sites give conflicting information as to its hardiness. Some say Zone 8 and others say Zone 9. The plant is most definitely a food hog. Mine wasn't growing much at the beginning and took off like a rocket once it got fed regularly.
I just wish it would stay open longer.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
