GH,

I use a liberal amount of perlite with a good potting soil - about 50-50 (this past year I just buy the large bags of Miracle-Gro at Sam's Club). I got tired of buying the small bags of perlite as well so I finally got a very large bag of it at our local nursery chain. I think I saved some money going this route.

RCN,

I got 'Grey Feather' from GHW about 3 years ago. It grows very well if you don't keep it wet.

Here are a bunch of canes from this past summer except for carolineifolia and bunchii.
