I listened in on a conversation where a K-Mart customer asked an assistant
if a similar packet of iris rhizomes where dead. The assistant said - 'No,
they are dormant, they are always like that when you buy them. They will
grow just fine'
I think they finally put them out on special when there was nothing left but
dirt. I guess you could call them expensive little bags of well rotted
compost!
I bought some decomposing dahlias for $1 (Aus) for 5 in a bag, and have
happily had 4 come up. I am sure stores would get a much better following if
they put their prices down just a little earlier.
Cheers, Jan Clark, in Aus
