Hi all. Back in May i planted a new shrub in front of my garage. Its called Amber Jubilee (Physocarpus opulifolius) 'Jefam'. Its in the nine bark family if this helps. Its growing good and looks good as long as it rains. If it goes 2 or 3 days w/o rain the very top growth of each branch starts to wilt.
And here is the kicker. For the month of June we set a new record here for rainfall. Thus far in July it has rained almost every other day. The area is well drained as its near the driveway which slopes to the street. The soil is good i just removed a 7 foot Arborvitae from that spot.
Should i dig it up and disturb the rootball some more? Remember it has grown it just like to wilt unless you water it every other day. Help or suggestions appreciated.
SO MANY DAYLILYS, SO LITTLE LAND
