Scott dug up huge root-balls, so the shrubs haven't suffered any their first week in their new home. Good sign, hopefully.<br /><br />Daffodil Planter- I'm planning on harvesting compost this weekend, and will share some of it with them!<br /><br />NSARH- I'm glad those two plants are surviving in the heat in your yard. As for the azalea - I know, I'm ashamed!! I gave them three years!!Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11904073032627748614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516629023597886764.post-10205335230899064752009-08-07T17:52:14.099-07:002009-08-07T17:52:14.099-07:00I have pineapple sage in one of the hottest parts ...I have pineapple sage in one of the hottest parts of my front yard and daylilies in the HOTTEST part of my yard. The pineapple sage is nice cos it wilts when it's thirsty, but the daylilies just go brown and sad. Thankfully daylilies are tough. I think it's a bold move as a Southerner to call defeat on azaleas. The only thing worse you could have done is call defeat on the crape myrtle. There'd have been a lynchin'!NotSoAngryRedHeadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11483848154656500575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516629023597886764.post-65014282462460001072009-08-07T13:24:17.649-07:002009-08-07T13:24:17.649-07:00I agree--move them when you have time to dig and r...I agree--move them when you have time to dig and replant.

It will be funny 10 years from now when they still haven't bloomed and I'm still saying that!!<br /><br />Dave- they are so common around here, even in yards with a lot of sunlight. My mom's are all in full sun! I guess some cultivars can handle it better than others. I suspect mine weren't watered much their first year of life, which combined with the sun made them so sickly. Oh well!<br /><br />Susie - Lowes on Lakeland still has a bunch of the fifty cent daylilies! It took great restraint to not buy ALL of them - LOL!<br /><br />DP - Scott doesn't like raw tomatoes either, but makes an exception for caprese!Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11904073032627748614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516629023597886764.post-49421316768951164332009-08-06T08:16:00.684-07:002009-08-06T08:16:00.684-07:00I don't like tomatoes...but I will admit that ...I don't like tomatoes...but I will admit that does look good!Dirt Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02738312834526690841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516629023597886764.post-2784628855914638062009-08-06T05:33:03.185-07:002009-08-06T05:33:03.185-07:00Good luck with the azaleas.
