Any reason not to plant them in the open ground?

A three inch concrete path against the house. {:-((

I don't think they'll
flower or do their best in pots. Ours covers just about half the
front of
the house and at present has stems waving up in the air way above
the
gutter. But it absolutely drips with flowers when in bloom. It
wouldn't do
any of that in a pot.

Unfortunately I have no alternative. Let's just go on with the
experiment. If they fail, so be it.


I hope they don't! Could you, perhaps, dig a pocket out of the
path?

Ten years ago, I made a hole for a "Schoolgirl" in that path. I found
it very difficult then. I am now 10 years older and just cannot face
it.
