I don't think they will be as prolific in my zone. I did grow them a few years back by seed and they looked good. It was a pack or more of them. They didn't get very big though. Since you said that, I'm thinking, I planted them in to fertile of soil. I have to try to find a place outside of the garden soil.

The first year I grew them, I watered them with miracle grow every week with the rest of the garden. They grew great but I got very few flowers. Last year I didn't let the miracle grow get on them, and They were just covered with flowers. I guess somethings just don't need alot of care.

See on the left how there are very few leaves at the bottom of the arbor, that is the side I planted the blue ones on. The other side I planted red ones. The red ones make more leaves and are bushier.
