Ok im determined to grow one of these mothers in my garden. I think 3 dead now.
Tried 3 different areas from partial to full sun near a garden wall. Dead dead dead.
Now i look over my garden wall and my old lady neighbour has a big mofo growing there in full bloom looking v healthy, flicking the V's at me. She has a gardener in doing all her work so its not worth being talked to death for an hour to find out she has no idea how it's growing. Along with the "oooh young maaan' comments etc, brrrrrrr.
What's going on. Cant be my soil just in my garden surely, lots of Rodies round my area all happy, my Jap maples and everything else grow like rockets. What am i doing wrong? I read they need warmth maybe i should grow near the house (hers alot closer say 5-6ft unlike mine were). Oh im at a loss.
Thanks.
