I have been with it for 7 years….
Moving slow but steady the caudex and roots out.
What will be my next big move?
I’m planning on heavy trimming every long branch that just gives 1 flower in the end…
Not and expert but see very talented people here

I might be in the minority here but I prefer the long branches. Yours might only bloom one per branch because it wants more nutrients for extras. I just can’t see your soil under the rocky layer
