Mike,

Glad you posted this. Got Louisa's Song last year. Didn't take off really
well but did put up one 12" stalk with 2 blooms. Now I have one fan left that
looks doubtful.

I bought 2 rhizomes of About Town. Both rotted. I cleaned one and moved to
a pot, so far nothing. Cleaned the other and left in place. It's gone.
Again & Again rotted in the same general area, but has recovered with 2 small
fans. On the other end of this 50 foot bed I lost about half a dozen rhizomes
that I won't list. Everything else was great. All of this happened in one
relatively brief period of spring rain.
