I grew it in a pot for the first time a couple of years ago, but planted it 
into the garden at the end of the summer.  Last year it came back but did not 
bloom.  I think it was too shaded.  If the plant makes it back this year 
after all this winter of snow, I will try it in another place - or maybe try 
again in containers.  That way I can control the conditions better.  I 
believe it is better suited to dryer conditions than we normally have, but 
the past six years of drought have caused me to start looking for xeriscapic 
plants.
