Since the Blair hasn't been growing at all, and has been a sluggish plant all summer, I decided it was time to investigate the stump. I would of done it sooner, but it was my smallest plant, and in a bad location, so I have just let it go.
What I found was that something had tunneled all over in the stump and pretty much hollowed the whole thing out. It desinigrated in my hands. It was full of tiny little brown bugs, (looked kind of like fleas do), as well as Pill bugs. Not sure if they were just feeding off the decaying stump or if they had actually caused the decay. Either way the plant has been pulled out, and noe there is more room for the other three.
