It might - depends on the year! We've had summers
that have almost been rain free, tho humidity usually stays pretty
high. This summer, it seemed to rain an inch to several inches
every few days through most of the summer. It finally quit raining
in late August (? I think).
Soil drainage is never a problem out in
the gravelly part of the garden, but if they are prone to diseases that
thrive with high humidity, they probably wouldn't do well
here.
Anybody in the southeastern US in wetter areas than Donald
Eaves trying to grow Spurias? Walter, Bill, Janet? Anybody in
Region 7?
