Janice, I do usually do that when I get the mail orders. I just have no luck with those pots. Do you think I should dig it up now and re-soak it? I will not bother with the ones from e-bay, this person sent me two hosta's in a peat pot and they just have never grown, now they have slug bites all over them. Also I bought a 'Loyalist', I love the variegation and these Hosta are slug resistant, but the one she sent me is just a dark solid green, don't have no idea what it is except maybe a seedling. So basically the Hosta are not true to name, I think she grew these from seed.

I got Pica Bella for 4.47 and all the others were seven something, but that better than 20 something! Especially, Jim Dandy for 7.77, I stole that plant!

Susan, when a plant I really like is struggling, I will dig it out, clean off the roots and give it a nice boost soak in a liquid fertilizer bath overnight.

Hope it can help your plant.
