Yep, my big sik, which was carrying berries by 1999 A-05, turned its tube=r
into a gel despite the rather dry conditions in a transparent plastic pot
(for purposes of paranoia, which obviously did not pay off).

Hey Jim,
So I'm on a hill. The A. sikokianum's don't rot for me. I did build my be=ds
according to your directions, well, more or less that is, did use turface
and grani-grit and sand but used compost and Lowe's soil conditioner
instead of peat. Used about 35 wheelbarrow loads of compost to one bed.
Talk about where they buried the elephant. So far, everything, including
the sikokianum is happy. Love to you both.... Nancy
