Very cool, Root! My sister had a white one planted in one of her flowerbeds that she was planning to mulch over the winter, but didn't get to it. It had no protection at all over the winter, so she dug it up over a month ago, and had it in a pile of stuff that was destined for the compost pile. She picked it up today, and found little green sprouts on it! It was bareroot, on the ground for over a month, and still lived!

Edited to say that this is a picture of mine taken last summer (it looks just about like that now, too, at least 25 flowers open). Julie's probably looks like Root's right now, just little green nubs on it.
