LOL  Congratulations on that bunch; looks great! How did it take to bloom, and was it set back by overwintering?

Re: Zone 8 Dwarf Namwahs
What kind of winter protection did you use?
When did you plant? Great looking plant.

Re: Zone 8 Dwarf Namwahs
This plant was 'pupped' after the winter of 2011 that wiped out all of our in ground plants. So, it popped out of the ground sometime in April or May of 2011, is the best that I can tell.
It had no winter protection and the leaves were frosted this past winter, but no p-stem was lost. Another in the mat has just shown its paddle leaf, so I'll be curious to see how many fingers it will produce.
