Any fans of these here? Just how shade-tolerant are they?
Very very! No idea why yours would have pooped -- last year, mine thrived gloriously in deep shade under an evergreen shrub -- they like rich, moist soil afaik --
Every time I've
gotten some from a garden center they've pooped out fast or just never done
much. This year I bought some much earlier under the idea that I would take
better care of them in their infancy than a nursery. Any tips for success?
Well-grown, they can be really lovely.
