Tricyrtis question

Hi guys! I wanted to ask you a question about Tricyrtis, Toad Lily. Two springs ago I bought T. 'Miiyazaki' and put it in my shade garden. The area has nearly full shade, and superb drainage. It took off well and bloomed in the latter part of summer. But this fall it did something odd. It bloomed really late, almost with the chrysanthemums, and the leaves were turning color before the flowers were even mature. I didnt even get to enjoy the flowers before the frost completely zapped it. Did it bloom late because it is in too much shade? Is this something that will happen every year, or was this just a rare bloom delay? Do you think it would be better to move it to a sunnier area? Thanks so much!
