I pulled back my Pine straw mulch and saw roots right on top too! This plant was planted in a hole 4' wide and 18" deep filled with high quality bulk nursery planting mix. I figure that it is happy and it looks great. I will just add compost to the top, remulch and hopefully it will grow more top roots. More roots better plant!
