    Not here @simone_in_wiltshire, it behaves well in my dry, sandy soil and I like the fact that it is evergreen, grows in shade and flowers prolifically in spring. I have others elsewhere which help to bind the soil on my bank and keep weeds at bay. A very useful plant for the right soil and place.
