    I planted some of these, they looked like tiny dried up corms. Absolutely no result! :( I know someone else was going to grow them [Palustris?] Any luck?

    sorry Liz, but I don't know. I'll bounce this up for you as I wouldn't mind hearing the answer myself...

    We got plants to grow from the tubers (If you try again, soak them in warm water like you do with Anemone blanda corms). Since then we have had very little evidence of growth from them after planting out, but that could be the drought we are suffering here.
    Will let you know what the tubers are like underneath when (if?) we harvest them.
