| _Bleu_ | On November 27, 2017 | Transplanted In September of 2017, I was given four plumbago plants in 10-gallon pots. Two months later, I put them in the ground outside my patio fence and have been watering them so that their soil (clay) would always stay moist. Now, a year later, they have quadrupled in size and just had a wonderful flowering flush. |
