Let me know if you'd like some seeds. I'm pretty sure I'll have a bunch.

I'd love some. Treemailing you.

Got it!

Thank you.

Red cypress/ Hummingbird vine

I can't get the Red Cypress to do anything for me but DIE Whats the secret????????????????//

Cherie, just kind of surface sowed them. This one climbed 8 feet from below the deck on the step railing and is twining into a pot. I'll see if I can save seed for you.

Mine grew but didn't bloom much until a few weeks ago. Now it seems finished blooming, days are short.

thank you.........

She's sending me some seed when the time comes. It was up the thread.

I went out yesterday and found a few things blooming, the colors are spectacular since we had some rain and cooler temps..
Lady in Red

Some pink snaps that have bloomed all summer..I've had these for years
and they keep coming back.

Victoria salvia

Porcelain Berry Vine

Pink Knock-out with White Swan coneflower. These were
seedlings I transplanted, hope for more next year.

Gotta love my Black and Blue salvia.

I do love that B&B salvia!
Do you bring it inside for the winter?

I did for a few years..year before last I didn't and it didn't come back last year...I was so happy to see it this year and am trying to decide what to do with it...I would love to have it every year instead of every other year..

I read somewhere that you can bring it in after first frost, place it in a slightly vented ziplock bag and keep it in a cool closet for the winter. I don't know if it works 'cause I haven't tried it for that kind of plant, but that's what I do with the tubers from my begonias. Worth a shot perhaps.

The begonias.

What a wonderfully colorful basket!!! I may try that..Just dig up plant put in zip bag and leave in closet???No watering?? That sounds super easy and would sure beat having to keep a big pot in the garage...

Yeah, I think I remember they said to wrap the roots in damp peat or shredded paper. Not sure why they wouldn't rot, but you wouldn't be out anything, and you may just wind up coming out ahead.

Do they have to be where it is totally dark like a closet?

I would think so, just because then they won't be tempted to either use moisture, or be tempted to grow.

Sounds right. I may try it.
