Loving the hint of red slipping into her foliage! She has really taken to her in ground home. Seeing this makes me want to put mine in ground too…Tell me, what you think of a spot on the north east side? It’s cold there in winter though. I’m so hesitant to try it🤔 Thank you for sharing her again!❤
Mine has East & South exposure so it is getting sun from sunrise to about mid afternoon. It is a bit more sun than I think it likes. Planted it there for 2 reasons: to get more blooms and a more intense Fall color.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for an easier Summer so it gets established more.
In your case, I think the sun exposure means no stress during Summer.
“Ruby Slippers” is hardy to zone 5. If it is making it through winter in a container, it should make it in ground despite a colder corner I suppose.😊😊

I had her in the ground on the south with afternoon shade under the old Redbuds. After electric company cut my trees she started burning and that’s when I potted her. After reading your reply I’m feeling much better now to plant her in ground. I like how yours is looking so I’d like to try. You’re right about her being safer from the summer sun on the NE. Thank you so much!❤️
