I tried the Kangaroo Paws last year in my California garden where they should be perennials and they promptly died. I don’t think it was me though, it happened so fast they must have been on their last legs when I got them. Still it was sad.

I like hostas for their shape and their leaves and really dislike their flowers–so I cut them off. To each their own though.

I did 4 groups of three plants and two of the groups had some good flowering, the rest are just some green leaves, not taking off too quickly. I did read that you pretty much can’t water them too much so I upped my watering. Hopefully next year they start to do better!
