Now, you tell us, Don. I did get the seeds
from you to come up and planted them out on the wooded hillside. They
promptly disappeared. Still have a couple in pots and just repotted up
into much larger pots. If it will grow in Tennessee, it is going to grow
for me. Oh don't quote me on that.

Here a pix of my Glaucidium, which I had for about 3
years (also from Seneca Hill), then disappeared for no apparent reason.
Just this photo alone I?d like to have framed some day. I?m trying
one again this this year, ?but the days grow short when you reach
September...? if you know what I mean.

I had one up until about 4 years ago, It was just
about my favorite plant; the blooms are to die for!. But it slowly
died out over a period of several years. I thought it was the location
(a raised bed) and perhaps the soil drained a little faster than other
spots. So a couple of years ago I ordered 2 more, again from Seneca
Hills. Ellen told me my geographical location was not right for it and
she didn't hold much faith that I would be successful with it. One
died over that first winter and the second is hanging in there but smaller
than last year and no blooms. It's in a ground level bed. I'm
still hopeful, but accepting if it's not in the cards for me. If you
can find one (Seneca closed down) it is very worth a
try.
