Thanks Rowan,

i would have loved to leave them in the ground, but now that summer is here I really saw the defficiencies of the growing bed, not to mention the leaves were starting to turn from a deep green to a sickly yellow. since potting them back up they are responding well and starting to push new leaves.

now that they are in pots I plan on leaving them there. This species has a desert growth character, and if given the chance will send roots as deep as the will possibly go. I think it might be best to keep them in pots for the first couple seasons to have the best chance at decent nebari.

Patience is a virtue that I'm stil wreslting with, but in this case I think I made the right decision
