I lost 1 of 3 plants this year. They were planted last year as tiny plugs. I'm not sure what happened other then I think I stepped right on one early this spring. I do know they like it really dry and well drained. If you are sitting on clay or wet soil, the root will rot and not come back.

Ah, clay strikes again. Thanks!
