Sick Striptease ?

Post by k9clipper »

I have been watching this one for a couple years, and I'm not liking the way it looks this year. Luckily it is not planted very close to any others. If this is HVX, how long should I wait before I plant another plant there ? Next Spring ?

Sorry but it is HVX

Dig it up and trash it wirh things who are to be burned

You can plant even a new hostá when the sap is dried out,.... 3 to 4 weeks is the common answer

Hope you can find a new Streptease... or if you prefere a kIWI Full Monthy... the blue one

Sad to say

I already have Kiwi Full Monty and love it ! I dont think I will be replacing Striptease although it has always been one of my favorites.

Well, I did the dirty deed today, it just about killed me. This was the plant that got me hooked on hostas.
