Marge, thanks for the sand bed idea. I think you're right about the full sun;
although just to keep me confused, some are thriving in spots beside those
that withered and died. They don't actually turn brown, they just shrivel up.
Since I've got such an abundance of it dead, I'm sending samples off to the
Extension Service with the soil and all. I've had a similar reaction with
some Lobelias (L.gerardii 'Vedrariensis', L.splendens, L. siphilitica, and L.
s. alba) and with one of my largest and oldest Anemones, Honorine de Jobert,
I thought slugs had to be involved with those "deaths" but can find no
evidence. I'll let you know the outcome whenever I hear. Thanks again for
the help. Holly Zone 8
