I've purchased a LOT of liners from the same coop, for several years. I potted them up the first year and planted them (pot and all) in the ground. Mine did very well, but you do have to be patient. I really like the cost of these plants and they're not really hard to raise from that size.
Here's a few of the liners that I've grown...
Lakeside Old Smokey
Lewis and Clark
Stargate
Blaze of Glory
