See my earlier blog message Trite but True. This is a follow up because I like to document the growth. Frankly, I wasn’t certain of the success of the seedlings; I was uncertain whether they would survive–and thrive–in the shade. Or whether they would survive a squirrel uprooting the plants!! Because the outcome was questionable, I planted the Hummingbird Vine in a large–but ugly–planter. (That was prior to my spray-painting-planters project.)
