Dennis - it's very happy here, in my yard, in dry dappled shade. I got it from a friend who was using it as a groundcover around her big old black locusts (not much will grow there), and now have big drifts under a mulberry and facing down some rhododendrons. Perhaps you're being too kind to yours?

It's native to Eastern North America, and I can barely keep it alive in my garden. I'd like to know if anyone else has it, and what are they doing to get it to thrive? I just found a local population and I picked a small piece to try in my yard. But I have 5+ year old examples from mail order nurseries that are just barely surviving still.....
