Thanks, Greg ...

I keep getting new information and then have to change plans .... Smiling

>>>I'd guess the rock with the brick surrounding it would work - for the first couple of weeks after transplanting you probably will have to water more often to let it get established,

I am not so sure. That's a west facing wall and gets direct hot sun for hours during the summer months. The reason I thought to plant them there, before I found out about their need for shade with temps above 85F is that bed was already a fast-draining bed. With my high summer temps and the reflected heat from that wall, I wonder if any plant can survive in that bed. It's 102F right now ... Rolling my eyes.

I took a couple of lousy photos of how the plants look today between moving hoses, etc. They were tagged as "Hens and Chicks". btw ... I purchased them on June 6th ... can you tell I am behind ?

This one is supposed to be one of those with webbing

This is the other one purchased at the same time.

Do I need to get these potted up immediately or do you think they will hold for another week while I mulch the garden ?

Smiles,

I'd rather weed than dust ... the weeds stay gone longer.
