Now that I've spent all this time making my new beds, I am wondering if they will support my big nana's. They'll be in 12- 24" of pure compost. Do you think that they will be safe from wind in such a loose airy mix? I'm sure all the smaller plants will be fine but 15' Orinoco's. Do you think the roots will spider out enough or should I mix something into the soil to give it some strength? The last thing I want is to see them blow over in one of our Midwest rain storms. Any help is appreciated!-Nate Dogg
