===>That's surprising, Val.  I have them at the corner of a fence, inside.  
Just outside the fence was a spirea, very overgrown and we cut it down this 
spring and replaced it with something else.  I wonder if that will be the 
demise of my crocosmia?  I have had an occasional dahlia and glad come back, 
but not that can be counted on.  This year the verbena bonariensis came back 
from the roots which I've never seen happen before.  It was a very mild 
winter.
