Hey Mary Lee :) Thanks for the info. Josh hit mine with the truck and
nearly uprooted it - now it's leaning towards the street badly. After
reading about your's, I think I might try digging it up and replanting it
out in the back yard.
Mom bought that for me for my bd 9 years ago. It was in a HUGE pot and
about 12ft tall at the time - think she paid about $50 for it. I sure
don't
want anything to happen to it - whether it ever blooms or not :)
