Hi, all,
My unguicularis died this summer during our second mini-drought. I was
rather surprised, since I had been led to believe it liked a dry summer.
Maybe not quite so dry and quite so hot, though.
It was a two-year-old clump -- made it through last year's winter just
fine. The place I planted it was fairly well-protected from wind and from
afternoon sun, slightly alkaline soil, good drainage.
Any comments?
