I bought plants, Leikora variety plus one male, this is their third year.
Actually one female is much older; I originally planted it and a male in a
hot dry place as recommended but the male died and the female barely barely
survived; transplanted her and new plants to more normal place with
adequate moisture, and they all thrived. No fertilizer or other inputs.
They are vigorous spreaders, probably invasive.
