I only have the two right now, but I think that next year, before they come
back up that I will put the rest of them in continers as well. They are so
pretty but I don't really ahve a shady spot to plant them unless it's out
in
the woods, and I have ont yet gotten to the point of clearing out the junk
under the trees so I can start putting in ferns and hostas under there.
Though I AM pretty excited about it!

Oh, and I NEVER even tought of the copper boiler keeping the slugs off!!
I should have realized it, I used to use copper tape around my avocado
tree
ans some other tender little things. It worked pretty well.
