Jason, what a fabulous buy and its going to make a great fountain for you. Looking forward to seeing it when you are done. We don't have that store in Phoenix unfortunately or I'd be there right now. LOL hugs, Karen

I googled it. Before it becomes that moth...it is a oleander moth. Or Polka dot moth or also called Uncle Sam moth because of it's colors. NOT good for Oleanders...as one could guess from the name lol. Who knows, maybe I will get to see one of those. But then they do eat the Oleander...so maybe...just maybe I can do without em lol Lucy

Don B, I actually took a piece of June from that pot and planted it in the ground in a shadier location. It is a very strong grower for me. The shadier one has a more bluish cast while the potted one gets more sun and is much brighter. Both are very eye catching and I plan to spread this plant around the yard in more locations due to how it performs for me. That potted one is bursting right now. Overnight it must have grown another inch taller. I do have Paul's Glory and can add the before after pic when I get home tonight.

I have a similar problem... am a newbie gardner so please forgive some of my incorrect comments if any... My guy told me that the buds form in the fall for the next spring...because we had a harsh winter the buds were damaged and didn't continue the formation (growth) process in the spring. Recommended solution: wait until weather is warm, test for dead branches (scratch green test) and trim away dead branches...then wait to see if it recovers. Its a shame to see such a beautiful tree in rough shape but patience and trimming seems to be the answer
