never give up on a basjoo
I finally decided that one of my basjoo wasn't coming up. Didn't know why, I mulched it just the same as the others.It looked like it'd made it. It still had a mushy stump there,not a "hole of death". But it just wasn't growing anything at all. So I planted another one a few feet away from it.
Went to the mailbox today, and behold, there's a pup coming up from the one I gave up on. Actually 2 of them about 4" tall. So they didn't come up until around June 10th. That's the latest I've seen one come up here yet.
