Exactly Sylvia. I try not to baby mine (guffaw) as i am frightened of killing them with kindness. If you get them in the right spot, they take care of themselves. One of the most beautiful ones I have has been in the garden for 4 years, clay soil, but on a slope so it doesn't get too soggy.
I recently cleaned up around it to make it a bit more presentable, and removed a pup to put in a protected spot. I wonder if it will acheive the same colour now that I'm looking after it! he he
