I usually do the yellow ones too, either from Fleet or Menards, but last year they turned out to be some flat variety that didn't get very big. They are storing well... the skins are so hard that I can barely peel them...but I don't like that they are so small and being flat makes them harder to cut up IMO. The Candy lasted till spring then we ran out of them so I don't know if they would have made it till the next harvest.
NW of Marinette here, according to the map it's zone 4 but I always try to get perennials for zone 3. They are probably correct that the average lows are -20 to -25F but sometimes we are much colder. I've seen the thermometer bottom out at -40 already. That's why I'd be grateful for any suggestions of perennial flowers for up here. We're building a new house so will be doing lots of landscaping in the next year.
