Default guara

Last fall I got this great deal on guara plants at Wally World. A quarter a plant for 1/2 gal. size. If they survived when would they begin to show growth? So far, nothing. Maybe not such a good deal if they all died! But they were quite healthy. Piegirl

Guara here in Northern NM is not up yet--I notice it comes up in late April or early May. Our nights are still quite cold so things are coming up slowly.

Mine have been up for for about 5 weeks or so (I think), but in your cooler zone, it may not be time yet. I love guaras, they are great plants. It is supposedly hardy to zone 6, or even zone 5, depending on who you ask.

Hi,
Tiny leaves have appear on mine in the past few days, so I wouldn't give up on yours just yet. It is fairly warm here right now, so I do think it needs nice temps before it will show itself.
