I have had a Pink Swirl for 3 years now. I have had it in a pot until about a month ago when I planted it in a raised bed. It was a great bloomer in the spring and early summer until the temps rose. It would then look scraggly and would completely die back for a few months. In early spring it would send up new green shoots and bloom. I wasn't really expecting it to bounce back when planting it in the raised bed. It is so happy now! New green leaves and looks like a brand new plant!
