My garden is suburban so space is a premium compared to you country gardeners. I would have moved it after 2 years and if no bloom by the 3rd year it would have been a goner. I do not pay above 20 bucks for any of my plants and if i can work for them its all the better. More money to spend on weed control and fertilizer and some good dirt.
I had Big Apple for few years and was not impressed with 3 blooms per year so it got trashed.
