It's the same story here, in terms of watering. I should probably add that
arilbreds grown under shadecloth like TBs stay green like TBs, while TBs grown
in the open like arilbreds -- usually die. When I grew arilbreds in Oklahoma, I
treated them the same as my TBs because I didn't know any better. They thrived.
