dnrevel On December 10, 2023 Winterized
I have two tubers now divided and packaged in vermiculte for 2024. Storing in our insulated garage for the winter with a temp monitor. Will add heat if it gets too cold.
dnrevel On November 22, 2023 Maintenance performed
Seemed like it did not grow, except I dug out a tuber with this label in the corner of the garden by Thomas Edison in 2023. Unsure what kind of blooms it made. Looking for photos.
dnrevel On May 6, 2023 Potted up
Arrived yesterday, potted up & put in greenhouse. All have sprouts.
