I planted some last fall and they are thriving in my zone 6 garden.  My 
problem is they did not bloom this year.  I purchased them for the wonderful 
scent of the foliage, and not for the flowers.  Still, I would like for them 
to bloom.  They appeared to be mature plants when I got them
-- I would say second year.  They only get a half day of sun, but since they 
are listed for dry shade, I have not thought that was the problem.  The soil 
was well amended with compost and they show no signs of nutrient deficiency.  
Perhaps I should feed them some phosphorous in the spring.  In the meantime, 
does anyone have any other ideas?
