| bloominholes2fill | On May 23, 2018 | Miscellaneous Event Our winter weather extended in to early May, this year, and I'm afraid I lost one specimen completely, and the other is looking really scraggly.  I've noticed that ornamental grasses in commercial landscapes are struggling too, so my guess is this unusually cold Spring is the culprit. Hoping it will bounce back, this year.  |
