They look great Mike. Mine are in the garden but they seem really slow this year. Do you know whether they get weaker as they get older?

Mine are a fraction of the size of these! I love the red colour.

Chris, I think that they get stronger as they get older. I didn't have much luck when I planted them in the ground. Three years ago I put them in pots and they did much better. All i do in the fall is cut them back and I bring the pots down to my cold cellar. I don't dig them up any more. In the spring when I go down to bring them out they are usually starting to sprout back up.
