My concern is the growth for this year isn't as big as last years where I cut it. I did use some nylon rope cushioned by a piece of blue pool noodle (to keep the rope away from the stem) and pulled the stem back some (to a piece of wood fence) because it was leaning from where the sun had pulled it. ...when you dig yours for winter, do you leave it bare root or do you put it into a container with some soil over the root? Thanks for all you information...I greatly appreciate it....Don't know what I am doing with this plant yet. What do you use for a high potassium fertilizer?.......The only thing I can find locally that has a high potassium # is Miracle Grow Tomato soluble fertilizer. 18-18-21.[IMG]
