Mine is long gone! Smiling They sure are easy to grow from seed though - they sprouted and were doing fine until the time frame when they needed to be transplanted into a larger pot - didn't do it soon enough and they dried out Thumbs down

Wish I could find seeds, looked on the net but found zip. I loved that plant, especially because it was given to me from a very nice friend! Big Grin

They sell them sometimes at the DBG spring market. I have not seen them in their store.
The place I bought the others has closed. Wonder if maybe Lynn has a plant left?

Oh, there was a place in Pueblo Colorado that sold the plants on the net. It was/is a catalog order site. I see they say they are closed until next Feb 2017 for the season, but they might have seeds.

Here are their details, they might be able to send you seeds. http://www.sunscapes.net/Pages...

No, but I sometime think about joining. Hilarious! I have attended their plant sale in the spring, which is usually in March I think. They hold it at Denver Botanic Gardens and it is always a madhouse.

I bet they have a branch in Washington.

I think their show was the one Lynn came out for several years ago. or it could have been the Alpine group which is managed by Panayoti Kelaidis at DBC.

The sale I went to was in I think April four years ago. It was the Alpine group managed by Panayoti. Was fabulous. Maybe we should all make a road trip in the spring?

Both of my plants bloomed this year and may have set seed. Let me check.
Just got home late last night so trying to catch up on things.

Just checked, I think I got several seeds from the dried stocks. I will send them to you Julia. The plants are totally dead now.

Greg do you remember when your seeds became mature?

I just hope they are viable seeds, or even seeds at all.

I'm afraid the container they are in is way to small to catch the seeds. I will try to harvest more seed and plant out in one of the raised beds.
I need Greg to give me information on what the conditions were when he had seeds sprout.

Lynn hi welcome home!! Group hug I just let mine bloom and within a few weeks the pots underneath the blooming one, all got babies growing, so it was nothing special, just potting soil. They seem super easy to sprout based on this experience. I lost them when they were growing in their own pots and I should have watered more often and didn't (which is why I don't plant much from seed!) But I bet yours will be viable too! They seem an easy plant for that, like in the dandelion family or something Whistling
