Re: trial plants?

mine go into the ground too. OK the commercial buyer would probably get a  
larger one, but they still it in the ground regardless so knowing how it 
grows  is a bonus. Nan - your climate might make that tough, but for me it is 
Ok - I  just keep an eye on them for the first season or two. The White 
Flower  Farm/Proven Winners from last week are much larger than most and are 
settling in  well courtesy a very damp and dreary week last week - one of those 
great for  plants, frustrating for humans weeks.

So this  brings up an issue for me that I wonder if others face.  Trial 
plants are  usually too tiny to plant in my garden so I have to pot them up and 
grow them  for a year before planting them out.  That defeats the purpose 
since I  canât report on how they did until at least year AFTER Iâve 
received  them.
