I'm thrilled about them doing so well...but I really didn't have high expectations for this. As I said, I kept careful watch on it looking for signs of unhappiness. A few weeks ago, I let myself get a little too neurotic about it and told my husband I wanted it taken out of the ground so I could plant it "the right way". He stopped me, saying it looked good to him and I should leave it alone...
I just hate it when he's right!
I'm not advising anybody to go so totally against the protocol for where you live but in my opinion...you learn from your mistakes and all the people who have learned from theirs and are teaching us what they know took some chances along the way
I thank all of you for sharing your knowledge so freely.
Don't be afraid to make an educated decision. Read all you can, ask many questions, take notes...and then come up with a way to do what you want to
