20. I Even Tried...

...moving the pots into the sun every day.
But, our house faces east, and; our garage is in the basement so the back yard is at basement floor level. Now, add the 2 story house & the back yard barely gets sun until after noon.
Then, we've got a 45' tall sycamore, a 40' tall silver maple, and a 40' tall alder in the backyard.
It's a death trap for plants that need a lot of sun.
