I hope they hold out Monty,
So far I don't think I've lost anyone except possibly some tiny historics my chickens buried. I'm hoping I found them all when I replanted them in some of my potted roses. I also haven't seen much in the way of stalks so far. I think I may not have the bloom season I had last year. I'm wondering if I should fertilize. I have composted cow manure in the beds and don't really want to fertilizer unless it's necessary but maybe they do need a boost. I wonder if the difference is weather or soil conditions? I did put down a thick layer of wood chips this spring but not on top of the rhizomes hmmmmm.
