I gathered that it was sort of a "poor doer", Lucy. No body seems to have it "commercially ". I got a start from another member a couple years ago....but it was a small, dried up rhizome, and, while it did start to "green up & grow", it just didn't seem to have enough 'oompf" to make it . others that I have received in even "worse" condition, have made it just fine ! Looking over the "medal winners"list, there are a few that make me wonder just what the judges saw ! Or, where they were growing at the time ! Maybe just judged for "beauty", or "new color ", and not for hardiness!
