THis one spent all last year in a pot, threw it in beneath the lilac in autumn and it came back ready for spring. I think pairing it with the lilac seems to be sharing bloom timing, so it didn't work out like I thought, but both stay at the property after I move. I wish them long life. :-)

Thank you. I don't know where I lose time these days.
Today is the last day I get to just take shots and watch it grow. I do have the luck to be able to transport everything to plots at the new place. Its a hillside, but the same aspect to the sun, so my plants should still be in the right conditions, maybe a little drier. I'm excited to share the move and new garden next spring. :-)

LOL! Thank you Aleyna. I am excited now that I can go up there tomorrow, and really look deeply at the space I'll have. This is he peak blooming season, so wrong time of year, but they'll recover, I am going with them, as you say....lol!
