I just recieved 8 large bundles of cast iron plants that I ordered off of ebay. Yes, I know it is early to plant but I found them and just had to order!
Question I have is what do I do with them now? Is the ground to cold to put them in already? Would putting them in pots for the meantime be a better idea?
I'm in zone 8... south Alabama.... I'd be happy for any advice.
Cast Iron is one of my favorite plants. It holds the soil, it looks lush and tropical, adores shade, takes abuse, hides magnolia grandiflora roots as well as monkey grass does, can live root-bound in a pot--and survive being inundated by salt water during a hurricane. I had to get a hatchet to separate the huge bunch I had in a destroyed pot. Congratulations on your new addition to the garden.
I just saw a plant in a friend house, and it looks sick, he didnt knows which plants it. So i started to search on google and i think its a cast iron plant. I would like to know what do i need to tell him to take care of it or what do i have to do to get a lil plant of that?!
