What Fertilizer to Use on Dutchman’s Pipe Plant?

I planted a dutchman’s pipe from seed (in a container) and at first it really started growing. Then I planted it in the ground and it did ok, but not really good. Now it is only brown stems and I don’t know if I should try again with more seeds for put fertilizer on this one.

Did you acclimate it before planting it out? If a plant is not acclimated, it can die. This article has more information:

If it is only brown stems, it is likely dead and I would recommend starting over. This article will help you with confirming that it is dead:
