My plants have never experienced a dry winter yet. Mine has light and almost summer all year around

Mine is just waking up, it is usually deciduous and the 'caudex' is just sending through the first shoot of the year.

Beeaaautiful. I want one. Just look at that little fuzzy bud developing. And the sleeping caudex is beautiful too!
