yes dee, well a rhizome and they very easy as long as you give it an open soil with lots of leaf mold.They are not the fastest of growers though,well not for me,i've had it five years now and still only one shoot.

Seaburn it flowers in the spring and i think they are pretty accommodating to what Ph mine is grown in a pot with john innes and leafmold and perlite,gravel they are worth every effort.

thanks for your prompt reply. with the photo posted in summer i was wondering if i had been mis informed as i had only ever seen them in the spring. i will have to dig in lots of beech leaf mould then. at least it is acidic. :o)
