I bought Eranthus Guinea Gold at Paul Christian.  I have had this plant for about 4 years and the clump gets bigger every year.  It was purchased as a living corm with live roots.  They are rare because they are sterile and the corm must be divided.   If somebody would do a tissue culture!  


===>Thanks for the information, Frank.  Many gardeners report failure with eranthus (winter aconite) corms. My reading and experience with them indicates that planting the living corm with roots rather than the dormant corm in the fall is the only way to ensure success.
