I purchased two roots and both came healthy with one having quite a few new eyes developing.

Once planted, leaves started coming up in just a week. I was surprised to see the size of the root as I have many plants coming out from one root. I'm sure I'll have a good clump in the first year itself. Will wait to see how well it flowers.

Beautiful roots. They are about to bloom already

it is growing well but no blooms het.

Healthiest bare root I have ever seen. It's already growing like mad in the bag it came in! Wish I had more room in my garden for another one. If something annoys me this year I might rip something out to make room for more of these. If it's anything like the photos, I will be thrilled.
