on the 3rd or the 4th of april, i started an experiment. the basjoos were put in the shade and left for a few days. over a period of 2-3 days, i moved them farther into the sun. i finally put them where they were to be planted and the leaves got sunburnt. not really bad, but the got burnt. i took my d. orinco out and put them right in the sun.( this was the same day the basjoos went into full sun.) the d.o. has shown no sign of sunburn on the leaves at all. i was truely amazed. and it seems that the d.o's are more resistant to the wind then the basjoo. ( no rips on the leaves of the d.o. , but have a few leaves torn on the basjoo.) this was so cool. cant wait to get them all in the ground.
