I really can't offer too much on the growth habits after wintering them over mainly becus I've made a decision to get rid of most of them and decided not to feed them or baby them. Some have grown much larger than others though, some have already put out flowers (probably a month ago). The reason I left them in the ground, well mulched, was to see which ones would be winter hearty in our area and come back...DS, many of the Whites, Frosty Pink, and some un-named ones did great!

Now that I know which ones I want to keep I'll be sure to treat them more politely (feed them, de-bug them, etc). (Right now it's nearly a weed patch out there all around them and will be until I pull out the keepers.)

Here's a pic from last August though. Purty, eh? They eventually really bloomed and became a nice jungle to walk through!
