I have 3 rhizomes in 20" planters, all in their first year. My cascades just sprouted. One of them is about 5 inches high, the other just broke dirt. I inserted wooden stakes into the pots and drilled a hole near the top to run twine from the soil to eye-hook anchors at the top of my balcony.
How close does the twine have to be to the soil for the bines to reach and start training? Right now my twine runs about 12" above the center of the pot. Is this close enough? My aggressive cascade doesn't seem to have grown much in the past week, although it's been quite rainy and overcast. I'm wondering if maybe it has nothing to grab onto, so it's not getting any vertical...
