Re: Mushy Brown SPots
I removed like three outer layers from one of mine so I didn't lose height. It finally seemed to stop spreading and is working on its 3rd leaf since trimming it back about 4-6 inches.

Mine stayed out all winter ;) Except the leaves were wrapped around it for insulation and tied up. Seems fine even with a week in the teens to mid 20's. Already getting a few days in the 70's!
