I have them planted in a shady area and I water them on a regular basis and they are doing just fine. I have mine in big pots cause I don't have room for huge plants but you can plant yours in shade in rich soil and they will grow bigger. Cool, thanks!!! I will get some and give it a try, they are cool looking Amy
