Thanks Chelle,
Right now it is very hard to imagine my jugs drying out! We have had so much rain. But I realize eventually I will have to water. I planted them with Miracle Grow Moisture control on the bottom and promix on top. I hope that will help with a little less watering.
I am not opposed to cutting the tops totally off at this point. I just didn't know if they would sunburn. I've already sunburned by poor geraniums I overwintered.
