I acquired and planted my Craig Barbers Eye in May.......planted in the
center of a patch of Stell D'Oro's to let them fight it out, thinking the
Artemisia would spread. Well, not this year. No rain herer since June 27
and that was a thunderstorm with mostly runoff.
I'm losing or going dormant plenty of plants, watering the woodies and
"prized perennials, then hoping the well doesn't dry up. Now Craig Barbers
Eye ( and what kind of cultivar name is that/ ) is fried about
80%........Stellas look wonderful; go figure.
