As for the two that have not sprouted, it would depend on several things: Time of planting relative to first frost (if you planted them too early they could have been harmed, if you planted them late they may be totally confused). The condition they were in when the arrived - could have been DOA. The quality of the soil they were planted in. How much water they got. How deep they were planted. etc... I think it is probably too late in the season to try again with new rhizomes for this year. I have read you can plant in the fall as well. Hi Ed,
