I think it will go very well. I have never grown them but think they are lovely. My son inherited 5 when they moved in to their new house and they are gorgeous. Two are red but the others are a pale pink with a white centre, I always think of ice cream when I see them. My daughter-in-law said I could dig one up for my garden when it has finished flowering..yum. They do suffer a bit in the winds and rain but I say go ahead and buy one, a real cottage garden plant.
