Mine is blooming now....started in early-May. Even with our miserable heat 
and drought, it is blooming nicely. A very good performer for me. I have 
mine growing with a Bleeding Heart Vine ("Athens Yellow"). The bright 
yellow, delicate flowers of the Bleeding Heart vine (look like Cordyalis 
flowers) are wonderful with the 'Polish Spirit'. They bloom concurrently. 
White iceburg roses and common sage are at their feet. Looks pretty 
good...next year the Horse's Hoof Valerian will have filled out and it 
should be outstanding (crossing fingers)
