    I bought one of these yesterday at a garden shop just out of town. Will be growing it in a small space on my patio. Has anyone grown these plants? It's the first time for me, any advice would be great!

    I'm working on my 2nd one in the Houston area. The first plant just gave up the ghost and I am not sure if it succumed to the long, hot and humid summers here or if it is more tender than I understood. It did not do well.


    The new one is growing near the area where I planted the first, but now has some shade and seems to be doing okay, but isn't producing any new flowers.

    Good luck.
