I have Maurelii planted in full sun (brutal all day ) in the center of my yard and they're doing great. They weren't happy at first but got there quickly.

This is such a great statement. It is adaptation by the plant's internal genetic switches that makes them grow back more resistant to abiotic stress. This is exactly what we are going to try to do in Las Vegas. Eventually, mother nature will provide answers and while they may not be realized during my lifetime, there is always a possibility that the environment itself will produce a sport. After all, genetic mutations happen and what greater source of radiation than the sun. If we gradually increase the daily dosage of sun exposure, the plants will create their own defense mechanism.
