British Columbia: the Rhodo Taurus

I have just bought 6 of these beautiful Rhodos and wonder if any of you have them? I see them in full bloom at the Shawnigan Lake School and they are awesome. I would like to hear from anyone who has these in their gardens and if you have some advice about this particular beauty.

My taurus is beautiful, but spindly. The stems dont support the weight of the flowers and the whole thing is semi-prostate during blooming. It gets full sun only after the blooming period is over (and the sun is higher) so putting it in a sunnier location might have prevented this, but I dont know for sure. But if I were to plant it again I would definitely pick a sunnier spot.
