I have a couple of deep purple ones, which along with the original ruby one have suffered from mole mines. They are very active on the banks where it keeps moist, eating my worms! As Pulsatilla have a deep root they do recover, but haven't managed to grow into big plants like some.

This one last year is one that nearly disappeared altogether, but the last two summers have been dry and they have had a chance to recover, 3 years ago I was pulliing my hair out over moles! Worms go deeper when it's dry, so do moles.
