Message: [QUOTE="GBBUDD, post: 507873, member: 10026"] Full Sun 50% peat moss 50% COURSE Sand and it must be course sand if the place your buying sand from doesn't know the difference then don't buy it, it must be course sand. Beach sand is too fine and will choke out the roots they can actually grow floating in water but they get scraggly . the bottom of the area is 3/4 round rock for an 1 1/2, water fills up the area to the top , where the mix of course sand and peat sit on that the peat will pull up the moisture keeping the roots constantly wet. In the fall they say cut them back to an inch from the soil . but i usually wait till spring as they still provide some color in winter. [/QUOTE]
