Bought the original in 2007 and after keeping it in a container a couple years, planted it out in 2009. It had some dieback in 2010, but is looking good. About the same in 2011, had some dieback overwinter and doesn't look quite as lush as 2010.
I have been teaching in an urban middle school for more than 20 years now and still enjoy it, but I love my summers because it's gardening time. I have lived at my current home for almost 22 years and have about 2 acres. Probably one of the acres is garden. It is a pretty shaded area and most of the plants are shade tolerant. We have lost some large red oaks in 2011, and this has added some sun to dark areas and opened up new growing possibilities.
