So, to me, yours looks wonderful!

As said it is very poor this year - which is why I am worried about it.
Normally it is a giant while ball with hardly any greenery visible. A very
striking but short lived display. After the petals shed the ground around it
normally looks like it has snowed - totally whited over (and a pig to clear
up).

If I can find the photo I took of it last year I will post that up so you
can see what I mean.

How old is this plant? Does it need watering? Have neighbouring builders
poured out cement buckets over its roots - I've known that happen a few
times!
