Doris or David: yes I'll ship y'alls out on Saturday so you should get them on Monday.
Mona, the secret to my roots being that way is alfalfa mixed in the soil (with the other stuff I use). I have seen plants with it and without and I seriously think it helps. Plus I sit the pots in the beds that aren't planted but have the pine bark mixture in it. The roots grow down to the moisture . Sometimes in pots the water just doesn't always saturate all the potting mix and I think the roots just stay where it's moist. If I have pots that aren't in the beds I'll fill another pot part way with the pine bark and sit the other pot inside, it works the same way. I was pleased when I started unpotting them. I was afraid the fans may be on the small side, but once they got washed they look bigger than when in the pots.
