No apologies necessary. I posted that before reading all my mail otherwise
I would have realized how dumb it was. The reason it doesn't set seed,
which I realized after I posted it is because:
1. It doesn't bloom very well for me.
2. I pick the blossoms off.
That might be why it doesn't spread for me. DUH! :-)
