It has very dense foliage, very few flowers but never seems to grow any taller. Disappointed. The plant is several years old, so it is well established. Any ideas? If it doesn't grow this year, it will likely be replaced.
Stunning blooms that last throughout the summer.
Have blogged about this plant twice at my blog, gardendaze I like it so much. It's a strong grower, and beautuful even when not in bloom!
I love this plant whether it is in bloom or not!
hardy , lovely, low requirements and a pleasure to own. One of by best buys.
I really like the leaves with the lighter green on the tips and the flowers are beautiful too. They are slow growing but worth the wait.
My Sugar Tips are way taller than I expected at approx. 5 feet after only two summers. Foliage is gorgeous. Flowers are beautiful and plentiful even though their size is a little disappointing at only 2 to 2 1/2 inches across. Love 'em!
