Whats funny about setting in water Willow. I made the new bed, planted them all in it. But Funny thing was, just above them the gutter broke during the bad rains we got during Nov. and Dec. I was so stress they where going to drown. OH the pain LOL. DH got one finally fixed then the other broke, Here we go again.
I was so worried that I started digging them up as I did not see any growth, All the little Taters where fine but 2 Which I did not have very high hopes on to start with.
Be surprised on what they can live thru. The only real bad thing that can happen is they can get a fungus that will rot the tater or something will think its good to eat.
I have learn this the hard way. I know I have said this before maybe in a differant forum. I lost my Pooh given to me by a very speical friend, had him for 5 years he always came up. But last year he did not, So I went digging found something had eaten him. was so upset.
Lessen to know, dig them up at least every three years and check and divide, add more bug powder and booster.

This was the last Pic of Pooh
