Overwintering should begin after the first autumn frost has blackened the foliage or the foliage begins to wither. Cut stems back to 10 to 15 centimetres. Gently dig up each clump of roots, turn them over and allow them to dry for a few hours. Don't wash. Soil left on the rhizomes will help to keep them from drying out. Store clumps in barely moist, sterile sand, peat moss, or vermiculite in a cool, dark location. Ideally, place them on shelves or racks, or hang them in mesh bags so that air can circulate around the rhizomes. Don't let the planting mix freeze or dry out during storage. The medium should remain moist but not wet, or the rhizomes will rot. Planting instructions included with purchase Height 6 - 6.5 feet, Full - partial shade 4 seeds in package
