Send me an address and I will mail some bulbs when they are ready. If I put your address on my calendar I will not forget later. These are the little thingys that grow on the top part of the long stem- they will put down roots where they touch ground although when I plant them I gently place them where they have good contact. Come winter they die down and the tops go to the compost- in early spring they grow again and you are good for another season.

No, they are not expensive to buy,(but free is better) but I think my great-grandfather would smile if he knew the latest generation of something he grew a hundred years ago was still being shared.

Thanks so much for doing that - I know exactly where they are going. I’ll put some new potting soil mix in there to make them really happy.
