Locally in Southwest Ohio. We (the plant societies) manage many plants in various growing conditions.

Many plants are grown in less than ideal conditions and it shows.

Like most plants it depends how you site them in the landscape.
Water, soil, fertilizer,mulch all play a roll on the plants health and success.

Springtime growing conditions are dramatically different in both of the photos.
The plants shown in both photos are taken a few days apart and are within a mile of one another.
The difference in total height will 6ft vs 20ft+
