Clare, Thank you for the information...I am in Zone 7. I usually dig them by the 15th of October. There are three growing there. I have always potted them and put in the greenhouse, or in the basement where I would just let it go dormant. They are getting so big it is almost a good thing that this happened. (Well maybe not) It is getting harder each year to make space to winter them.

I tried a couple of years ago to root a cutting that I broke off, and had no luck. Since joining D G I have learned so much and think that just maybe I can do it this time.
