These are one of the highlights of my garden.
Mine have been in the ground for about 6 years, and each year they get bigger and better.
Keeping your tubers and storing over winter if you can't leave them in the ground will reward you with a great show year after year.
Another bonus, is that Hummingbirds will nectar from them.
Mine started blooming the middle of April, this pic was taken the beginning of June.
