They are quite nice and good at supressing weeds

Yes they are the best I found for suppressing weeds better than sedum.

That's a good one. Does it survive the winter?

Yes, they've been through the worst winters. They'll also survive droughts and floods, heat & cold, easy to transplant, Once you plant them, they look after themselves.

Yes they are a very reliable plant Paul if it was nt for all the Sycamore seeds and leaves I get from next door I would have it again but it s a nightmare noticing the seedlings amongst it until they get big then hard to pull out.. Hence why I try to only have big plants with bare ground surrounding them so I can spot the seeds.
