I bet you can plant in ground there Robert just make sure good draining soil and if it frost cover them up I had one 4 1/2 ft tall for 3 years (my sister said she killed it
it was dorm it
) i had it out in the frost freeze each year in a pot and it get some damage on front porch but i finally killed it (ants ate the whole thing hollow sound familiar???
parts of florida drainage is the biggest problem my sisters water table is way to high i had to build up a mound for her plumeria and no tree roots are any deeper then 2 feet deep not even oak trees palms are doing good but NOT oaks!! after they blew over 3 times she told me to come get these damn trees out of her yard they where there 2 years and the root ball was 1 1/2 ft deep and 8 foot round but the tree was 8 feet tall and NO TAP ROOTS!! i planted in my yard and they are going no where!!
.... check this yard out... these things are HUGE!!
I have neighbors that have them in the ground and they look like they are doing well, but we can catch a frost here. It will be interesting to see how they fair over the coming years.
I'm going through a purge in the back yard..I'm making room for more plumerias but I think I might plant the adenium that I had to trim down due to the bad caudex in, its high and dry and gets full sun....
