Hi neighbor

Yes, I have a several but they are "bloom challenged" right now. Tell me, do have yours in the ground or potted? Mine are in pots, however I have been wanting to put them in the ground, but I have been a little concerned about how much damage I would be doing to the roots by digging them up every fall. Got any advice?

Oh my...The Hummers are back!!!!!!

I planted mine directly in the ground this year..you have to repot into a larger pot each year if you sink the pot in the ground as I had been doing and the pots were getting to large and cumbersome..they are heavy feeders and I use Rose Fertilizer...this is a great article...you will enjoy...my hummers are here too...I thought they were late because I hadn't seen them at my feeders but i looked out the windows in the great room and they were feeding on my Cleomes!!.
