"Purchased these as a reminder of my youth, back in the northeast. Never thought they would grow out here. These came up fine the first year and have been spreading ever since. Have them around our fish pond and my husband is really loving them. Gave some to my mother in law, and she could not get them to grow. She lives in town, where as I live about 10 miles outside of town. Even the strong winds here do not do them damage."
