| I have some roots that i've had for a while, bought at a big box store. Anyway, i checked them, and they are brown, i broke a small piece off it was like dead wood inside, not green.
Anyway, i don't know what it's supposed to look like. Are the roots dead? Should I plant them and give them a shot? Thanks. |

| Plant and give it a shot but probably will not live. Much depends on how long ago you purchased. I have had some that were 'lost?' in the garage for a year or more live but is uncommon. |

| I'd give them a shot, peony roots can look pretty bad & still show up. Just be aware that from a box store it may be two years before you see bloom. |

| Okay, thanks! The ones I have going now are from a box store, and it did take a while, but they are getting big, and i got blooms last year, and it looks like a lot of blooms coming now, so i'll keep my fingers crossed :) |
