Keith,
I too agree with Don in the fact that they don't need a mulch and I read,
somewhere, that after 3 or 4 years they need to be fifted and divided as
many perennials to maintain a good flowering.
I noticed that on mine but I didn't do anything because I 'm gonna move to
the south of France next year and will have to move my best plants by the
way.
