How long it took for the Maricongo to fruit? I am trying this variety in Central Texas but not sure if this is viable.

Could I dig it out and keep it in my garage during winter and re-plated back on April/May time frame? I seem some people using this method and that was what I was going to try.

Well, I have 3 plants so I will dig one, leave the second one on the ground and try to insulate it the best I can, and the third one will be inside the house on a large Pot. Let's see what happen. This will be a good experiment, is not that why we are here for? let's do it!

I have started a plantation in 1 acre just one month ago. I am here just to check out how to keep them healthy. I really hope they yield as much as they do for you. I will get back to you after the next phase.
