I should have used more river sand in the mix when I started. These guys love full sun, hate shade and want a very open, fast-draining mix.
Hopefully this kicks on until Spring when I will add river sand to the mix. At the moment its a pain in the a$$, as its a matter of moving them every 2nd watering and then moving back.
As long as you have good levels of sun and excellent drainage, they can grow quite well. As Neil pointed out so succintly - they don't like to have wet feet. I can't wait to move house
