I've got 3 of them growing in mine. Two of them bloomed this year. The reason they are all living and doing ok is because I don't really want them!! LOL! I got them free, planted them and one bloomed the next year. Then I dug one up and threw it in a pot and forgot about it. I barely watered it over the winter, and that was only because I felt kind of sorry for it sitting half uncovered in that pot. Then in the Spring I continued to feel sorry for it and replanted it. It bloomed this year too. Another one I moved several times and it's still alive. I just took a picture of one of them the other day. This is how it's surviving the Texas heat in my yard. It's buried in the middle of this bed of red salvias.
