9A/Houston, TX 10/10/22: Purchased bare root from DA spring 2022. Suffered from summer heat but relatively healthy foliage and occasional blooms in the absence of a formal or inorganic spray program (occasional neem spray). Put in ground Oct. 2022 in mostly shady location, where it had lived in a large grow bag it was moved into immediately after purchase.
