Hi everyone! I was given some "moon flower" by a co-worker a month or two ago, which I've identified as Datura Inoxia based on another friend who knows that they type she has (they look identical) they were 1-2 leaf shoots maybe 2-3" high. They have grown, but I planted them in the shade, and I think they are quite unhappy there. They haven't even attempted to bloom or grow further.
I would like to move them to my sunny backyard, however I worry it might be too late in the season to move them?
The ground they are in is rather shallow (the dirt sits near my foundation and isn't very deep) so I don't know how far out the roots have branched.
Are these like morning glory who hate to have their roots disturbed?
further more, I've read that they can be "root hardy" in zone 6b? Does this mean if I toss some mulch over them in the winter they'll come back next year?
