No not really. My problem was the Winter after I planted them, the deer nibble on them, and according to something I read that can stunt the flower production for years, and that's what happened. I had lovely big bushes and no flowers for many years. A few years back I started to get a few few flowers. The last couple of years both bushes got a lot of buds, but the bush on the right barely bloomed any. This year they both are covered in blooming flowers. And I basically don't do anything to them. Just let 'em grow. :)

I really need to get out and cut some to bring indoors. :)
