Wow, Cindy. that would be discouraging after 7 years. There are so many to choose from, we don't need poor performers. I have had H. David Kirchhoff for 7 years now. Moved it last year after several years of splotchy, mangled blooms and it seems to be doing better this year. So now I will wait another year to see if it will finally settle in. But it is taking up space and it may go next year if it doesn't get a lot better.
