Re: A couple of doozies

Richard,

I have grown Ipomopsis for the last 5 years. It grows 2 to 3 feet tall and
usually needs staking if grown as individual plants but it looks better when
planted in groups. It has to be replanted every year since it reseeds poorly
for me but it has reseed into a nice patch at a local nursery where it has a
sheltered southern exposure, in fact that is where my original seed came
from. I just scatter the seeds on the surface, rake them in and let the
rabbits thin them out.
