My mom has been growing Orinocos for 20+ yrs since I was a kid, here's a couple of her patches
She trims the mats so they don't take over the lawn but the corms underneath are 20+yrs old

Keep in mind we had the winter storm here in Texas so everything died back to the ground. They only started growing back in March so it's only been a little over 3 months.

Here's is one of her smaller patches with 12ft units - 3 Months!



She let this one grow along the fence but trims any pups that grow towards the lawn



I think I read somewhere on here saying that old mats/corms don't grow well... at least with Orinoco I beg to differ
