Who stores Zebrina corms for the winter?
Hi
Last fall I winterized 2 zebrinas corm and they have been in the ground for 1 month and no signs of life yet (June 2sd 2007). What do you think? I winterized 1 last year and it came back. I am in zone 7 a/b here in Atlanta. Thanks a lot Patrick |

Re: Who stores Zebrina corms for the winter?
Hey!!!
I left mine out this past winter.. The mother didn't make it but I have 3 pups... I have lived just W of Atlanta (Douglasville) and your weather is very similar to ours here in Texas.. I think the biggest threat would be wet conditions causing it to rot..Gently dig around to see if you find any signs if life.. Good Luck! Kylie |

K
Thanks for the answer. I will give them 1 more week and then I will dig around.I doubt they are sitting in water, I got them downhill in a spot that doesn't hold water. Patrick |
