Pat I have the same problem. I purchased 2 from Kmart last year. One of them
did not survive the winter and the other is in a pretty sunny location. The
foilage had looked okay but had never gotten really huge as others I had
seen. Now the plant looks yellow and scraggly with something chewing on its
leaves. Which I will blame on rabbits.LOL
So I'm wondering if I should go ahead and move it a little later in the
season or see what will happen next spring.
