This was a rebloom pod. Ripened about mid to late Oct., potting soil, white
hangy pot (sitting on the ground) about 8 inches across, watered in. Just
left setting outside. (by corner of white house) That's why they died! If
it had been a spring pod most would have grown enough to survived over winter
in the pot. Most of mine do. Had I tucked them in a cold frame or something
I figure they would have made it.
That reminds me . . . most of the late sprouting seed from last fall, the
ones that kept coming up from the year before, made it through the winter.
There was a thread. Several of us had a lot of seeds sprout in the fall.
How did others fare?
