![]() I removed almost all of my plants and relocated some to new locations.
Most (except the praying hands) were taken down to the ground with the freeze. I am not interested in the lady finger variety I have anymore so I took the patch down and now I have to remove the root bulb (its big on this one, it grew like crazy). Also some 6' variety I had decent luck with getting fruit I removed them completely too. Going in a new direction. Moving the PH to the west side of the yard with hopes they will cast some more shade on the porch and get better sun. Putting red dwarf on the east side now. Orinoco stayed put (just got a new shoot last week) Need one new variety, haven't decided on it yet
