I just went out and took a photo of Pink Pearl. She is very happy in the raised bed. No rot this year. Hurray!


However, the one I put in a pot is not so happy. It's showing signs of rot. Tells me it needs fast draining soil (lots of chicken grit) and air circulation to stay healthy out doors during winter.
Think I will move Isella and give her faster draining soil in the middle of a bed, see if that works. Won't know until this time next year. Whistling
