I had such good luck with the first basjoo being planted deeper, that I did plant two more at the end of the driveway yesterday. I didn't want to look at the bags of leaves all winter. I'm just going to use the mower in the fall to mow leaves into the bed where they are, like I do with all my other perennials. I planted them a foot deep each like the other one.
By the way, the one I planted deeper is as big as the other ones that were mulched with bags of leaves.
