Don't forget to keep them moist. They don't like to dry out.

I don't use any fertilizer at all and mine are doing fine - the soil
was amended and I use cedar mulch. I have found I've always had to
make sure they were well watered...mine haven't tolerated dry
conditions that well.

They like to be evenly moist. Too wet, they rot. Too dry, they wilt.
They're a pain to me.
