Someone else emailed me off list and asked me the same question Dean! And
if Colin leaves his in his pond, don't see why I should have to lift mine -
duff information given to me when I purchased the original plant. I did
leave one in the ground last winter and it did not reappear, but the slugs
may have got the shoots before I saw them. Will not lift them this winter,
which will save me space in the greenhouse, where I had been storing them.
Thanks. Thanks also for the advice on gerardii cultivars.
