Kali,
I grow Howdy Do and Whoop Em Up here in southern New Mexico. They did
weel in potd for a year then in the ground in my garden. The soil is
old river bottom with clay and sand underlaiment (Is that how you
spell that?) You did say where you live, but our climate is HOT
summers and mild to cold winters.
