Charleen - It must be the chicken poo that is making yours bloom so much! Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing

Mine have been blooming pretty steadily here, too!

Robin - I see that little bud on yours! Soon, very soon!

I feed Miracle grow, I don't know about 10-10-10, but I do know DO NOT USE Bloom Booster, it is bad and will kill them. I used it and the leaves stared turning yellow. Boy! Did I stop fast??
Fall is coming.
I plant mine in the ground IN their pots. I have to pullthem up in fall to put in Greenhouse so they won't freeze.
Have some come back from ground. Strawberries and Cream. Pink Insignia, I think Cypress Gardens, Equador Pink and two My Friend George Hilder Breed. Autumn Glow and Eunice. Monster also came back

OMG! THAT is what is wrong with my brugs. I've been using Bloom Booster! Ack!!! And yes! The leaves have been turning yellow and dropping! What a dummy I am! Ugh!

Thanks for the heads up about that, Charleen! You may have mentioned it before, but I had forgotten! (sigh)

Susie, your up north, and it gets really cold there. If you plant them in the ground, you will most likely have do dig them up, or at least take cuttings in the fall when it frost! I have some in pots in the shade, and some in the ground in full sun. Well, all of the ones in pots are doing much better than the ones in ground this year. If you have them in pots, they will need bigger pots later, as they get root bound pretty quick! I would move it around the yard, till you find a happy spot for it! I feed mine miracle grow at least once a week, and I double the recipe it calls for on the box! Especially when they are blooming. If you have access to aged horse, cow or donkey poo, soak it in water, make a tea from it. They like that too!
