First time growing this plant
Wanted some interesting filler for dry shade conditions. Since planting they have grown well, as all my other US Perennial plants have, and the red tinge to the new leaves is attractive. Likely to give this 5 stars after it has more time in the garden.

Nice sized plants, well worth the price, especially considering how expensive some dealers sell them for
Choice plants, nice and healthy, great price
