Along with Claire I have noted how much of I.f is to be found around old
farmhouses.  It's where I got mine from and it is the hardiest and most
prolific of all my plants.  when I divide, it blooms its brains out the
very next season and increases like mad -- almost as though it thinks
it'll die out if it doesn't keep producing.  It's also very beautiful
and tender looking belieing its tough inner core -- a smart lady indeed.
