Yes.the seed takes 50+ days to germinate and hit and miss better to buy the plant potted. This is a wonderful easy shrub. Very reliable and beautiful especially in fall. But if you try to plant the seedling in anything but full sun..it will flop and be scraggily. If a store bought small BS is planted in less than full sun..it will be fine. I can send you seeds come the fall if you want to try again ..but I will need a reminder. I have the wider shinier dark green amsonia and that will pop up everywhere. Beautiful spring time but the fall color and summer performance is unremarkable.
Don't squat with yer spurs on!
People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved
