When I got mine (about 3 years ago from a ca.nursery) it was just a few inches high, and when it bloomed all it's poor lovely flower faces were shoved into the dirt!
This was taken it's second summer in high heat; note the color differences as the blooms aged. Beautiful!!!

It stayed in the ground this winter (with backup cuttings and branches in the bubbler!) and is about 4 ft tall with it's first blooms now.
