Kind of fertilizers you've used... And/or maybe too deep or too high when you planted it??? Just a thought???? Let us know your answers and I'm sure someone will come thru and help you a little bit further. Weezie Welcome to The Garden Helper's Forum, we are very glad you found us!!!

OP elliesue Junior Member E Joined: Aug 2004 Columbus, Ohio	I just planted it in ordinary garden soil and haven't used any fertilizer. I keep the plant moist and it is planted in a mostly shady location but gets a couple hours of sunlight in the morning. A couple of the leaves are now turning yellow so don't know if this is normal for the fall or not. I am sooo new to perennial gardening! Any help you can give me would be so appreciated! Ellie
