This plant has done surprisingly well and unlike its counterpart planted just a few feet away has escaped being chewed on for the most part. She is showing strong favoritism for facing south which is not surprising. And there’s a definite odor to her though still on the weak side. I removed her support as she’s healthy enough to stand on her own even with the strong gusting winds we’ve been getting lately.
@losgehts she did! had i planted a week earlier she may not have survived but i seem to have timed it perfectly to line up with warmer weather and rains.
