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?
