I think the rather strange winter we had here confused many of the
plants, including D. peltata. The seasons seem to have been delayed a
month - June was quite warm, and we still have excellent snow conditions
in September!

The established pot of D. peltata was flowering around July, and is
still going strong. Tubers from a tray we had that I repotted in two
pots and in the garden are only just getting into peak growth, as are
the ones at the local CP haunts. Once the shoot hits the surface, the
growth rate will increase dramatically... a few mosquitos for dinner
also helps.
