Are any of you eager to start next years seeds?
Well, I am. Been looking over a couple seed catalogs and wanting to place a
small order.
I have questions about germinating 2 items:
1. Are Hosta seeds difficult to germinate?
2. T&M lists several Hellebores and I can't make up my mind which to order.
I've been coveting them for a long time. But I am wondering if I should even
go thru with ordering them at all b/c T&M lists them as Challenging to grow:
Helleborous HP 30-545 X @ 60-65 degrees Well drained
Pre-chill 3 months. See No. 6. May need to go through two winters
outdoors.
Is it even worth a try? I know even if I get 1 or 2 it would be worth it.
:-( Have you had any experience with them?
Weather is lovely here and I have been enjoying it outside as much as
possible. And the debates are over. I still haven't changed my mind.
TIA and Best Wishes to you all --
