| The only snakeroot that I had come back this year was in pots. None that I planted in the yard came back.I planted 2 in the yard this year and they did great but then one day they were gone. 2 died in pots and now I only have 3 plants left in pots. Should I put them in larger plants for the summer? Mt tomentosa came back fine. It was in the ground. |

Va. snakeroot is hard to figure, but I think it likes good drainage, so it would probably be best to leave them in their pots or plant them in a well drained spot.
Have you gotten any pipevine swallowtail eggs/cats?

| I have never had pipevine swallowtails or spicebush. I have planted 4 sassafras which all died. I do have 2 spicebushes. |

| tdr4: Let me know if I was the one that supplied you with the Virginia snakeroot so we can set you up with replacement plants this fall or next spring, and try again. Rod A. |

| Ah, the case of the missing snakeroots. I've had the same issue with some of mine. My theory is that bunnies chew them down to the ground, but I haven't been able to confirm this. Jeff |
