Hi Anne, sorry to hear that you're having problems with the mountain
laurel,  I was planning on ordering one or two next spring.  Do you have
any idea why they're having a rough time?  I've been a sun gardener for
decades, but just got into the shade a couple of years ago.  I have mostly
hosta and astilbe, but have put in a lot of odds and ends this year.  I had
a 'strawberry' foxglove bloom this summer, it was over 3 feet tall and
picture perfect.  I'm hooked on shade gardening...cooler to work in, and
not as many weeds!
