That's how you learn. I got some scorpions gemmae last year. They did really well until I did them outside last summer. Lesson learned.

They looked fine on arrival, but no sprouts... I think they don't like spending too long in the mail... Unlucky. Thanks for sending them! :D

They're (in my experience) fast growing neat little plants that aren't any harder to take care of than any plant which needs some sort of dormancy period. I'm looking forward to receiving my packet for sure. Don't let them go to waste, people!
