So they lean toward the light, but you don't have a problem with them tipping over? In other words, you could say that...

Weebl's phals wobble, but they don't fall down?

I put mine out all last summer (in Utah) and I made sure they were in the shade, were hit by the sprinklers daily, and were out of reach from the dogs. They were great and I didn't have to do anything with them from June through August (just enjoy the blooms)
