I have several packets of perennial seeds that I failed to get into the ground early this year. Does it make sense to plant them now, either outdoors or inside in peat pots, or should I just save them for next year? I also have a couple of dry root rasberry plants and several strawberry starts, that I forgot as well. What should I do? Thank you! Heather Foothills/High Plains of Colorado |
I'd plant them all now. The raspberry and strawberry plants won't live another season out of the ground and the perennial seeds will still have an opportunity to grow and develop a good root system prior to winter setting in. Plant them outdoors in a prepared bed and they'll be fine. Best wishes with your garden! |
