Oh that's really striking, has it spread or have you had to divide it?

Split it Anita plant one part in the ground keeping the other part in your pot that way you wont lose it completely ,its a good idea to mulch it well for over wintering in the ground .. we started off with one plant Mari we split it each year we also keep one in a pot just in case we should lose it ...

You must have it in the right place to be looking so good & your way of splitting it is good insurance. I'd probably forget all about the one in the pot :(
