Thanks Kayte, I will do that. My biggest problem here is that when I read a label that says "Full Sun", that means "But not for your area". I have killed two japanese maples because of this and countless shrubs because I've had to discover on my own what "Full Sun" actually means.

It's going to be a new experience. One I'm looking forward to. I've been trying to create a japanese garden but have been unsuccessful with some of the plants. The only real shade I have is from the house. The only JM that's done okay was almost killed by the heat even in a mostly shaded area. This shot was early spring. It's all brown now and crispy as can be.
