Donna I think moist and free draining suits them, but they didn't get much water last summer and did fairly well with the heat. I have a self set on the other side of the path at the edge of the fuchsias, they got more water than most things and the occasional liquid feed, that one grew to a really nice clump.

Dahlia Bishop of Llandaff at the end of the Fuchsias next to the side door. The Phormium around the corner is one I grew from a small seedling, simply called purple Phormium but it's probably P tenax purpureum.
