So good to see specimens that are growing well. Mine was moved a year ago and appears to have grown, but only slightly, in the new location. It DID bloom this year. :) Photo August 13, 2015.

I gave in to peer pressure and bought Blue Ivory this spring. Here it is July 27, still looking happy:

2016 update. Mine was moved at the end of 2015 and I'm hoping for better growth. I didn't see it in 2016. Aug. 21.

Mine is a dud! I think it's headed for the compost. I've given it long enough to start growing and I've tried it in several locations.
July 27 last year, but this year it's much smaller.
