Me, I love my Lillie’s, especially these dark purple ones.

It was surprisingly easy and pain-free for me, I didn't do anything special other than dig them up and throw the clumps in a storage bin full of vermiculite in my basement. The only hard part is dividing them because I had no idea what I was doing this year. It would much less work of anyone who lived somewhere warmer, but I am in Alberta, and it's too cold to overwinter them

In Calgary myself growmie, so totally hear you. I’m surprised my Lillie’s survive without pulling them to be honest.

Edit, but it does look like 2-3 may not have made it this time. They could just be late bloomers. I’ll see in a week or so I guess.
