I'm always up for trying something new, so all my spring shipments will originate from near the Canadian border
. I figure my plants will be scaping by the time the supplier thaws out enough to dig for shipping. I got one shipment that way last fall. It appeared dormant when I got and grew like a crazy thing after I planted it. In no time at all it had more foliage than some that were growing from the year before. It went dormant again but is now actively growing (more 20sF coming up this week so it may go back t dormancy
). I won't see them bloom this year, I think, because of the timing.
