Sally, the Maypops are doing very well, thanks. One half of the starts are in the ground (see the nice green leaves on the bottom left in this photo) and the other half are in a pot because I wanted to buy another trellis or other support for them first. The planted Maypops are sharing that arch with a newish Lonicera sempervirens, which I'm training to cover the arch, and a Clematis which never grows more than 4 feet per year (growing up from the other side).

I realize that I should move the planted Maypops and give them their own trellis or other structure to grow on, and I happen to have some wooden ones that'll do just fine until I find something else I like. If I were faced with the prospect of extricating woody vines, I wouldn't want to use a temporary trellis, but now that I know they die down to the ground anyway,,,, no problem!
