Mine are smaller and sometimes I feel bad about the size of them when trading/sharing. But they still blossom. This year I'm using some triple phosphate, about a tablespoon scattered around each plant/clump, to see if that will pump up the rhizomes a bit. Luckily, we have dependable snowfall for winter protection. With my thin soil, drainage is not a problem. synergy--the rhizomes are supposed to be exposed, not the roots, but the bellies.
