I had the Lychnis planted in a raised bed, edged against the rock border. I
think the loss of this plant last spring was a fluke....this is when Houston
received days of rain and the entire city was underwater. I wasn't
underwater, but we had rain continuous for more than 3 days.
I'm sure a seedling or two will come my way again soon in the
future---actually looking forward to it.
