Help with Northwind Switchgrass not thriving

Atlanta, GA(Zone 8a)

The last two years my Northwind switchgrass has declined.

They used to be thick, creating a nice natural barrier on one end of the front porch.

Now they are thin. I divided the larger plants a few years ago. The only thing I can think of is that they are in a raised bed (about 3 feet high) and maybe the soil needs some type of amendment.

They are one of my favorite features in the garden. I'd love any suggestions for how to bring them back to life.

Thanks!

You live in Georgia, the containers are metal, and it looks like they're in full sun. That's a whole lot of heat right on the roots.
