ge, you should be safe after the first hard frost :)

Cindy, I don't think your clay has anything to do with it because the Kerria 'Plenifolia' is in the worst, never amended clay = hard as a rock. Guess maybe I encouraged it by working the soil next to it for the new Hosta planting and now it's "jumping ship" to take root in the good soil! This is what it looked like in the Fall of 2005.
