I started with 3 plants, probably about 10 yrs ago. I found an old picture from '08. I think they fill in pretty quickly, too. Faster than 'Aureola' for sure. I added a picture of Aureola along my driveway - I of course envisioned an entire driveway bordered by Aureola. But I must have planted dozens of plants to end up with the spotty results shown. I still like it, though. To be fair, the Aureola is planted in a much shadier and dryer position, so I'm sure the conditions impact it's growth rate. I really love the variegation of Aureola.
