Full sun and regular watering should do the trick?

If by fizzling you mean it blossoms and goes to seed too quickly, and then the frondy leaves diminish, this is normal. You have to plant it again every couple weeks so you always have a fresh supply in the 'leafy' stage. Same with cilantro...definitely it wants full sun.
You never know what the past will bring.
