I suspect it was wet + cold that killed the bulbifer I had outdoors, so I think your idea is good. Conveniently, bulbifer produces those propagules on the leaf so I had a couple of small ones to keep in the greenhouse as backup. I know there's considerable variation in hardiness of different strains of Dracunculus vulgaris, but so far every strain of Amorph. konjac I've tried has been hardy here, in almost all locations and soils short of waterlogged. They'll survive in strong sun, but seem to be much happier here in half shade or even more. Steve On 5/26/2021 1:43 PM, Robert Lauf via pbs wrote: > I got three konjac in the BX, and all are growing.

The soil is dry and sandy. In the pot, the tuber is almost on the bottom, so it's about 6" deep. A similar depth in a warmer, drier setting than most of the yard might be a good prospect.
