| Astibles burn up in summer if they are not moist so if you cannot water every third day in at least July and August don't plant them. There are many other perennials that don't take as much water and besides the tree you want to plant them under will probably steal the moisture. I haven't had much luck with them and unless one has a sprinkler system or plants them over a septic tank I wouldn't plant them again, although they are attractive under the right conditions. |
