| Hi Everyone,
When you plant a new single tuber, does it reach it's mature height the first year? VS planting an undivided clump? I plan on leaving some undivided tuber/clumps in the ground this winter and was wondering if that may also have an effect on height. TIA |

| Hey Anita-- In my experience, yes a tuber does reach its mature height in year one----but it/they are slower to get there. Of course, I've not taken a tape measure to my plants and there may be variations of a few inches or so but nothing noticible to the eye. In my opinion, clumps are simply unpredictable. Some of mine are shorter than the others of the same name---have more sprouts climbing on the ground before I notice and can stake them, and simply have less flowers. Good luck, Patricia |
