Not sure. I had six plants I put out in the spring and they started out promising, but I was getting maybe one sprig (or whatever they're called) per plant ready at one time, which was barely a tease.

If I left them on the plants until more were ready, the early ones would then go to flower practically overnight. The fridge bought me a couple of days while waiting for more, but then they would start flowering in the fridge!

Yours might be a better and more productive variety than mine, and maybe planting them as an early fall crop will help as well.
