Appreciate your comments very much. What type of soil do you have? loamy, dense clay, or sandy? I feel bad that my Saint Cecilia died in my soaking wet clay in my zone 5a winter, and I'm interested in growing Madame Anisettes but I want to make sure that my soil is appropriate for it. How does Souvenir de Louis Amade compared to Saint Cecilia? thank you and please keep posting, since your comments in HMF help me a lot.
