Nice color. I have Royal Candles but it's still just a heap of green leaves.

Thanks, I hope yours puts on a good show soon.
I bought this last year but it's been in a pot all winter. Now that the fir trees have gone I have been able to plant it in the ground.

yeh, they love lots of sun, the more the better. Last autumn I cut mine down to the ground when it finished blooming and threw the cuttings on the ground. Well now a few of those cuttings sprouted into new plants...saved me a trip to the garden center!

That's good, I didn't know the cuttings would root like that.
