Subject: transplanting

Question
Hello.  I have recently transplanted some bushes.  I am not sure what kind, but they are tall and flower, not like a shrub.  What should I expect from these new bushes (dying, coing back, etc) and what is the bet way to "feed" them?
Thank you for your time!

Answer
Michelle,
To answer, what to expect one wants them to grow and flower profusely. Perhaps provide shade or be a windbreak. Where are you located? What kind of soil are they planted in. How big are they now, 6 inches or 6 feet. As for feeding or fertilizing them we need much more information.  Can you send photographs of them?
I really need much more information to begin to give you an answer.
Send the photographs to me at dale@softley.com you will get a message from my spam blocker but I can recover and look at them.
