Until last
year, each bare root siberian I got died (4 out of 4 over several years). Of
the ones that I bought last year, it looks like half of them died.

I'll bet you didn't buy them from Ensata Gardens. They send siberians so
eager to grow you just unpack and stand back.
If properly packed, a siberian will live for quite a time. We had a carton
of siberians returned after a post office mixup. It arrived back here 17
days after mailing and we planted the contents to see what would happen.
they all lived and bloomed the following spring. They sure did look awful
when we opened the box though.
