They get hot afternoon sun and I've heard that they would prefer a little bit of relief from the hottest part of the day so maybe that's my problem. I bought them from Rainbow Gardens on Bandera. I think they were about $7 a plant for the 1-gallon or $35 for the 5-gallon. Usually when I opt for the little plant, it catches up to the big one soon enough, but not this time :(Abbey Forneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14866614408026320025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482840421768272273.post-90967223709767960382010-11-19T09:57:34.438-06:002010-11-19T09:57:34.438-06:00Can't wait to see all your plants in person to...Can't wait to see all your plants in person tomorrow! :)Legally Marriedhttp://legallymarried.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482840421768272273.post-23419118603718423922010-11-18T22:33:47.386-06:002010-11-18T22:33:47.386-06:00wow!

I saw some for sale at the farmer's market recently, but they looked taller and skinnier- maybe a different variety?M.D. like mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12170436456849933530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482840421768272273.post-76228690123399986662010-11-17T02:39:02.256-06:002010-11-17T02:39:02.256-06:00Lovely photos.
