The post on their website saying it was for sale looked pretty recent, I wonder if his son is taking over orders. I think I might wait a few months and call. It sucks when your body won't let you do the things you love to do, doesn't it?
Lily, the roots I got from Chateau CharMaron last year were smaller than some and didn't look as nice---that might not mean anything at all, it could be the varieties that I purchased. Most cut off a lot of the smaller roots, she didn't. If the ones I got from her appear to be growing well I'm determined to put in my order. If they look like they're lagging behind the rest I'll hold off. We all took pics of our roots last fall and they're posted in the Roots 2015 string, I'm determined to post pics of as many growing as possible!
