HI,

Do you have this staked?

I'm about to pull mine out. The leaves look like swiss cheese, and very pale green and they fell over.
Not too happy.

Love the picture!!

Hap, it looks like there's some kind of support in there. When you enlarge the picture you can see a black wire or something. I'm pretty sure it is staked.

I think you're right, pepper.

I have one now that is over 6 feet. It has a VERY sturdy base and is in no danger of falling over.

Maybe I'll try again. They are beautiful.
