As you mentioned earlier, the problem is that you probably kept them too wet. Here is a photo of my D. scorpioides. Gemma were planted in fall 2002. They did not flower in Spring 2003, but formed gemma in the Fall. They flowered in Spring 2004, produced gemma in Fall 2004, flowered again in Spring 2005, and are now getting ready to produce gemma this Fall. It will be interesting to see how many more years they will live.[b said:Quote[/b] (jimscott @ Oct. 23 2005,7:25)]This summer they did flower and shortly afterward, one by one, most of them died. ... Any ideas why?
