Super. Were they grown from seed or tubers?

Beautiful!
I tried a few this year in pots on the patio, and have loved them. And have managed, by and large, to keep them free from slug damage :D
I'm also going to move some of them next year up to the plot (fingers crossed I won't kill them!)
Not sure I'll ever manage such beautiful specimens tho !
