You're right Joan, no large trees yet. If I put it in the one available spot it would get all morning sun. It would probably thank me because afternoon sun on the porch makes it wilt daily.

I did have a problem with bugs the first year I had it. I think it was spider mites. I used a recommended fertilizer with an insecticide in it (Bayer) and I've not had any more problems. I only used that because it was in a pot but won't use it again if I put it in the ground.

I don't know what kind it is, except that it's yellow. Here it is on a "field trip" from the garage to the sunny porch.
