I had both Uber den Volken and German Tet 1 but both died before they
bloomed. I gave up on them but after your comments, I may reconsider and
give them a second chance. They were part of the shipment I received in
August with 100+ weather. I also hope your photos come out well.
My experiment with potted Siberians in a shallow pan of water is working
very well so far. The plants in the pan were the weakest of the lot and they
are looking pretty good right now. I wish I had thought of this technique
when I got that August shipment.
