    I rec’d my rhizomes in such healthy condition. Planted immediately and they are all looking amazing. From 3-6 inches already with several little stems. Can’t wait to see their flower colors and attracting pollinators. This is the first time I’ve ever rec’d a live plant. I will order a lot more from Eden Brothers. So happy. Thanks you guys!

    I bought a package of three roots. One was easy to plant, but the other two I strangely had trouble arranging in the soil. It took several attempts of repositioning and I was worried they wouldn’t take off, but I’m finally seeing growth from the other two roots now! I’m excited for these to get established this season so I can see blooms the next.

    All 9 that I ordered came up great. They are blooming now, a few months later. They look so great among all my shade plants, and I might need more!
