It will be time to dig. How about some advice for me on how to keep those long skinny tubers from drying up??

    I have been very happy with the sulfur/saran wrap method for the past few years. After dividing, the tubers are tossed in a baggie with garden sulfur and then wrapped individually in saran wrap. Stored in a cool dark place. Last year with over 200 tubers, I lost 3-4 to rot, and none dried up.

    It takes a little time, but it works.
