Thanks Connie |

| Don't know the answer but that's an excellent question! Glad you asked. I'll be very interested in hearing what folks with experience have to say. |

| Works for hardy fuchsias planted in the ground, too. I don't know about others. Usually, too deep = dead plants. I learned that the hard way in our wet fall - spring climate where rot is likely the cause. A long time ago my dad took one look at my window boxes & figured it out. Oh, and I thought I was teaching my preschool daughter something. Fortunately, our gardening lessons improved and she's grown & married now with her own gardens. She's teaching me since she's so good at seed starting & succession planting edibles. I plant a lot more things high, then mulch around at least a few inches away from the main stems. More things live that way here. |
