Planting and Care Instructions:
Plants are sold as dormant, bare root rhizomes. This method produces stronger and more resilient plants that are more adaptable to transplanting and naturalizing in a new habitat. Grows particularly well under mature conifer, such as pine and yew trees.
Soak rhizome for 1 hour prior to planting. Prepare the soil to accommodate the length of the rhizome and the depth up to the crown of the plant, leaving the crown exposed, approximately 2 – 3 inches. Cover rhizome with rich, well-drained organic soil or compost mix. Water well. Keep moist until established. Once established, little care is needed
