Re: Gulf Muhly

It is lovely to have flowers in winter. I brought in a pot of impatiens that never stopped blooming and a couple of Pelargoniums are blooming again. Oh and an African violet bloomed for the first time in a couple of years.

I had ordered Gulf Muhly, Muhlenbegia capillaris, once before and it got
scratched from my order. I finally ordered it again last spring and got
2 little 2 inch sprigs. They grew nicely over summer but didn't flower.
I dug them in Sept and put them in the garage in the window - it's not
hardy here. One of them is flowering now! I hope when I plant them out
next spring that, being more mature, they'll flower earlier next year.


Nice to see a flower when it is 2 degrees outside with snow falling steadily.
