Hello. I planted 9 Helen von Stein lamb's ears this spring from quart size nursery cans. They are already 2 feet wide! I love them and they make a big statement. My question is, will they keep growing like this and I will need to divide them every year to maintain this size or should they stop spreading soon and stay around this width since most websites say it grows 12-24 inches wide? If you have this plant, how often do you divide it? Thank you!

Should stop spreading soon, known to grow quickly their first season and reach up 24 inches wide. It says to divide every 4 to 5 years.
