Brenda, I'm so sorry to hear your Belladonnas didn't perform . . . but I have read that they can be pouty. If you think you planted too deep, this fall is the time to lift them up a bit. As I said, mine are planted just below the surface, maybe half an inch of dirt on top.

Here is a lousy picture of one that I cut and brought inside. I hope they do better next year. They are only two feet tall and very pale.
