re the creeping modestly, the person I bought mine from said it took three
years for it to grab hold and go, and that's about right as far as what is
happening here.
But there was a lot of winterkill to the tops -- those dead looking
sticks -- so it is not evergreen exactly, here. It is robustly alive,
though, and filling back in. The new growth looks great, but I am not happy
with the winter look.
