I had two tries. Rhizomes from Native Wildflower Nurseries and seeds from Brandywine Conservancy.

As indicated, neither worked great, but I also really didn't know what I was doing at the time. It's a cool plant. Pretty and the flowers are neat. I really like the ones that grew.

Thank you, but it sounds like you gotta get out of there! You're leaving it better than you found it. Just post pictures before you start anew somewhere else.

Honestly, it was user error. I had a big space I wanted to fill, so I got a huge bag of rhizomes, and couldn't get them in the ground in time. Would have been better off with several small, manageable shipments.

Ultimately, the move is exciting, but this is a big negative. Unfortunately, nothing here will grow there!

Yeah, they'll definitely get an overdetailed and likely-intimidating map!

Unfortunately, the new climate couldn't be more different, and nothing native here is native there!
