Mine live on rainfall and the very occasional watering. They're out by the street, between the sidewalk and the street and also between the driveway and a short walkway. They're hemmed in by pavement/concrete on all four sides so they won't spread (invasive, or they like to be).
I clip the flowers before they set seed every year, but of course JAs can propagate by tubers as well. That doesn't bother me nearly as much as the thought of birds, wind, etc. transferring the seeds all over the place.

Yeah if you start with one and leave it alone, next year you will have a ton of them.
I have JA's in a flower bed. At the end of the season, I pull ALL of them out. The little tubers that break off and get left behind are plenty for the next year. I'm already pulling some of the excess out now to keep it from taking over the bed...
