I haven't had any luck what-so-ever trying to grow them where I live now. <br /><br />For the most part, my gardens are doing well but there have been some casualties due to the extreme heat this year.

Take a large soft drink bottle, plastic, cut off the base and poke it upside down into the soil so the spout is aimed towards the roots, then fill it with water and it will seep down to where it is needed. The hanging basket could be dunked into a bucket or tub of water and left to soak until the air bubbles stop coming up, then drain it and put it in a semi-shady spot if the heat is too much.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1370957632887969686.post-6210120371175624942016-07-26T21:36:43.607-05:002016-07-26T21:36:43.607-05:00I sure hope so, Paula.
