You're far enough south that they should be able to take the temps. Putting them in good sun was a good idea, that is the main problem with fall planting is getting them enough sun.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930778534030920874.post-28070079468042184442009-10-14T16:43:46.839-04:002009-10-14T16:43:46.839-04:00Kate, it's not truly visible from the street, ...Kate, it's not truly visible from the street, but it's smack dab infront of the neighbor's driveway.
