They'll look sad for a little bit and then take off. Just water them when dry.

Oooh thanks Barb!!! I've been sitting here refreshing hoping someone would answer.

Yes, I'm a nerd. lolol

There is nothing nerdy at all all watching those plants. I give all my plants a daily inspection, almost military style. I find out what's doing well, encourage the problem children and compile a list of what needs to be done.

Ok,, I admit, that actually is sort of nerdy. But my wife gets a good laugh out of watching me!

Happy gardening!

Barb is exactly correct.....they will sulk for a few days, but will recover as long as you don't over or under water.

Ok so no one will laugh at me if I confess that while I was brushing my teeth this morning, I was out patroling checking on the Lamb's Ear? And it is looking better!!

Welcome to gardening and the garden web.
No ones laughing here. In fact once you get to know us you find out what a bunch of characters we truly are.
Some of us go outside in our PJ's do a walk around and before we know it we're hard at work in our PJ's.
Of course I only do it my back yard LOL. I get into my street clothes for front yard work.

Thanks for the welcome, and I'm another one that will walk around the backyard in pj's so I think I'll fit right in!

Also, I've posted several questions here over the past few weeks and I really appreciate the help and advice you give.

flower spikes reach on Lambs Ear...can you cut it and root in water to make more lambs ear?

Thanks a bunch!!

I just bought a blueberry bush and the best place for it is where i currently have a lambs ear planted. I know it's not the best time to transplant but will it kill the lbs ear if I do so?

I have no experience with transplanting lambs ears, but trying to transplant anything while it's this hot is very risky. If I wanted to take the chance I'd cut the foliage back by two thirds or more, dig out as big a root ball as possible and remove it as gently as possibly and put it in a pot to rest in the shade. If it recovers wait until cooler weather to put back in the garden. Good luck!

Hopefully some others with lambs ear experience will give some tips, and those with blueberry bush experience will comment on the advisability of planting the blueberry bush now while it's so hot or whether it might be best to wait until fall on that too.

Transplanting in this heat is risky, but more so with lambs ear. I have found that they resent transplanting and struggle more than most other perennials when divided or moved. Ragna has offered sound advice. I would simply wait a few weeks until cooler weather.

Thank you both. I'm persuaded to wait a bit rather than risk losing both.

I'm late to this post so apologies! I've found that they pout, wilt and generally look dead for awhile, then come back just fine. I've transplanted in every season and its always the same. In this picture you can see I just kept dividing and moving them down the fenceline.
