Do these only flower in the winter?
Are the leaves evergreen?
How big do these grow?
Are they good for groundcover or do they form a shrub?

My garden suits the reds and yellows, they stand out well against the dark green fencing.

They are winter flowering and will grow well under trees and shrubs,nice bit of colour for winter and early spring,once established they naturalize quite easily so hopefully I will have loads to split in a few years.Only get to about 2ins in height but will spread to form a nice clump,not sure whether they are evergreen but no doubt Spritz will tell us both later..(Please Spritz)....

Thanks for the info - I'll keep my eye out for Spritz' response too - I love these, they're pretty flowers.
