    Same here, but last I checked a week ago it didn’t have any buds yet :(

    What zone are you? IIRC if you’re 5 or below they’ll overwinter and come back for a few years. Presumably you’ll get more buds in year 2+.

    Sadly we’re zone 6, so any buds that come up are getting chopped. This was a fun one year thing, but the yield doesn’t make sense up here - at least while we’re packing beds with a bunch of other stuff.

      It rarely gets below 20F here, so I am expecting my plant to overwinter (the roots, anyway) and produce more next year. Honestly I wasn’t expecting it to flower at all in year one, so this was a delightful surprise! Sunlight hours here are limited (especially because my garden gets some shade), so perennial plants often take a full year just to get established but then they take off in year two.
