To the post about the plants splitting, I bought 2, 2 gallon plants last spring at Lowes specifically because they did have three plants in each pot. I split them up, repotted them and let them grow out until fall, then planted them in the garden. They are doing great.

This is an improved, fast-growing form of 'Winter Gem'. Its glossy evergreen foliage is attractive year-round, and it has excellent hardiness. This variety's more upright habit makes it great for hedging. Faster growth means it will fill in more quickly than other varieties. Use it for edging or a low hedge in formal gardens.
