Initial Notes:

planted these in a pot with just regular lawn soil last year- had very little hope for them
invasive plants are great survivors though- these guys look great- going to plant them in the garden this year (planting them in that pot, so I don't end up with a mess)

had like 2 leaves on this sucker and have owned it for almost 2 years :) they have grown alot though- poor little home depot rejects that they were
I expect they will actually do ok next year- good thing they are so hardy, or I doubt they would have survived, never seen a plant so near death and still growing

have no idea what to do with these guys, think I might throw them out- they are getting bigger, but just branches, no leaves at all....hard to give up on them after 2 years, think i might just wait to make the decision

I'll keep them over the winter- they don't bud next year, i give up
