Alyce, that's what I have...so now it's Fallopia, huh? Lordy, will
they ever sort out this genus names for once and for all?
The person who gave me my bit grows it in Virginia red clay and says
it's pretty well behaved. I think, with some members of this clan,
growing them in less than ideal conditions makes growing them
possible. That's why I put my bit in major root competition with 3
huge trees. If it survived this winter, we shall see what happens.
I will be keeping an eye on it until I learn how it is going to
behave.
