Thanks for the encouraging comments.
I wonder about the zone info, and I think that often some plants are not rated for zone 3
because they have not been grown here.
Some years ago I had planted an Eremurus and by spring forgot that I had.
In the spring I found this odd looking plant and tore it out and placed it with the weed compost.
A few weeks later I found the same plant at the garden center---priced at $89.-------
