Palmate:

Thanks! It's doing much better now that's it's in a pot and under the shade structure. It used to dry out and sun-burn all the time when it was in the ground.

I killed some myself. They need a shady spot with tons of water. The ones I've killed were from lack of water.

That's funny about the plastic plant.
