WOW, donner! Look at those Monkshoods!!!! AMAZING!!!

All I can say is that I am a proud "Grandma" of them.

Still don't know what is wrong with mine. They HAVE been growing in a 12"
container. A bit cramped? Maybe poor drainage?

I am going to move them to a sunnier spot and water them throughout the season.
Semi considering the spot behind my Bird Bath where I dug out the
."Stinking iris". It will be sunny--a bit on the dry side--but I can always water...
It will be right next to a Butterfly Bush, the Bird bath, and my split rail fence
that they can lean on. See if that helps...

What do I have to lose??? G.

1--Where it had been growing--very cramped, shady and ignored

2--The pot of them i dug up to move

3--The potential, new location. I will plant them into the ground--well amended.
I know this spot looks cramped as well--but I really do not have anywhere else to put them.
I could, possibly, move the bird bath a bit?
