Berthold, do you dig them up every fall/winter and store them in a refrigerator?

No, the baby plants are in pots in a cold greenhouse now and will be set into garden in early spring and have to stay there without special winter protection. Its not could here in central Germany in winter time. More problems brings the dry summer heat which is much different from the Rebun island climate.
 
My new rebunense, based on a plant from Hokkaido. It can possibly be an albino forma

Interesting and congrats for such a nice purchase.
Hope it turns out like you want it
 
THis is one of the C. rebunense we imported in Nov. 2011. It is now planted in my garden. My second plant is still in a pot for security. I believe it will bloom next year, at least I hope.
