    Could never get it to grow well in my garden either... have resorted to growing it in pots, and it seems to be doing better this year.Ā

    Does it do well in pots? Thinking it would work in my white scented area? Any tips? It never grows for me in the ground.Ā

    I put some in pots last year, didn't do much, so I put the pots out of sight (out of mind...), and about a month ago, I noticed they were all pushing through! Looking pretty strong now...

    Will definitely try them in my pots then. Thanks. They just seem to disappear in the ground?Ā

    My dad had a colony of this growing in rock-hard dry soil down the side of his house, where we had the opposite problem - we couldn't get rid of it!
