We had faith in it from its very first appearance on our grounds; so much so that we planted it heavily, and the more we see of it the more we are impressed. On our grounds, after we had dug every plant from a bed in the spring of'91, the parent plant, in the spring of '92, produced an average of over one quart per hill, or 10,000 quarts per acre.
