Hi Fred, How cold is cold, and how do you know they didn't survive? Did you dig down, or are you inferring based on their failure to reappear this spring? I'm in NC, and most of my G. dalenii, and the hybrids thereof, are only now breaking the surface. In a colder climate, I'd expect them still to be underground. Some clones are even later to break dormancy. The 'Halloweenie' clone sold by Plant Delights doesn't appear in my garden until sometime in summer and it flowers about three months after the other plants--are your plants perhaps a late-emerging form?
