Hello,
Please take a look at this page - the
pictures are large and may take a little while to load.

This is the Dracunculus vulgaris I grew some little ones from, using information Nancy in
Tennessee gave me last fall. I have about a dozen babies (each a single
leaf) which look healthy. There are also a lot of healthy looking sprouts
without leaves.
The momma plant resides in some bushes in
a grocery store's parking lot. It's by the recycling bins. It must have been
part of a Victorian cottage garden as I've found some very simple irises
there, too, in the bushes. I imagine it's been noticed by other gardeners,
but I've gotten permission to remove it.
Ideally, when would be the best time of
the year to dig it up?
And what can I expect to find under the
soil? How deep is the bulb, and how wide? Will there be a tap root?
I've never cared for an aroid before, but
this darlin' needs a better home, and I really want to give it one here. I'd
appreciate any advice---my current plan, now that I've finally acquired a
shovel, is to get up early after we finally get an evening of spring
rain and go dig it up, carefully. It's already got about 2 feet of
top growth.
Thank you for any responses,
Karin in London
