Message: [QUOTE="cpp gardener, post: 300925, member: 8420"] I'm in inland SoCal, easily 100*+ most of the summer. They will grow here, sometimes in full sun, as long as they get some water. Just 3 times a week a good soak is usually sufficient. They[B] prefer[/B] some shade and rich organic soil, but will survive less than ideal conditions. A thick layer of mulch goes a long way to making them happy. Yours looks like the soil is too "soil" for in a container. It is probably staying too wet and doesn't have enough airspace in the rootzone. A more organic potting soil would be better. [/QUOTE]
