BUYER BEWARE. I have bought many plants from Home Depot and Lowe's at the end of season clearance. I pay about half of what it would normally sell for. It's a 50/50 chance that it will be what you are buying. A couple of years ago I bought two JI at Home Depot. Shiro Nihonkai and Pink Frost, nice big healthy looking plants. The following Spring, Pink Frost bloomed in all it's glory. Just beautiful. S. Nihonkai tripled in size of clump, but no blooms. The anticipation builds. You think, next spring will be spectacular. But Spring brought this one, definately not what I was expecting. Now I have another NOID with no hope of ever knowing what it really is, and still wanting Shiro Nihonkai.
