Re: Re: reseeders

> Kitty, are you able to grow Edelweiss??????  

Noreen,
I don't grow it but I suppose I could. It's hardiness is variously
reported everywhere between Zones 3 and 9. I wonder why you couldn't
grow it in Germany. The standard plant thought of as Edelweiss is
Leontopodium alpinum, but there are other species you could try.
Arrowhead carries 3.

That is one of my all time 
favorite flowers, since childhood, although I've never lived anywhere that 
I would 
be able to grow it.....even in our part of Germany.  Would see it when we
made 
trips to the mountains though.   Had a dried Edelweiss that I had for many 

years, it got lost on the move to the States, unfortunately.

If you have weeds, you don't have enough plants.
