Great plant. I love the nearly black foliage.

I bought 3 big container and when i planted them their pot is just full of soil and the rootball is just small same as the small annual pots that you buy. The rootball is still in its form and looks like they were just repotted to a bigger container. Home depot said Proven winners dont do that, well they did and i showed them the picture.

Bought three last year and used in a mixed table centrepiece as well as in the garden. They performed wonderfully! Best part was this spring after the horribly cold winter (-27C freezing and melting and snowing then raining), they are back and growing great!

Had three small plants last year. This they reappeared all over my yard. Extremely invasive. Plant only where you can let them spread.

I love this plant and it grow well, but NOT deer resistant. Every time it has a bit of foliage, the deer come and decimate it! It seems to always bounce back, but the deer won't leave it alone.

I was enamored by this plant. It is absolutely stunning...in the garden center. I bought 8, and 6 died. Proven Winners was very upstanding and replaced them....but all of them continued to go downhill. None made it through the winter despite very purposeful coddling. -Experienced horticulturist
