Other Plants

I`ve grown a bunch of these from seed, but have absolutely no experience of them. I wonder if anyone else has grown them, and can give some first hand advice please . The seedlings are growing away now and I`m hoping to put them into their flowering positions soon.

Stunning show @WeeTam and also @zilly ...mine just decides to flower when it feels like it and loves producing leaves more

Hello Victoria, Yes read the link, thank you so much. I'' persevere with it and hope that one day it will look like your lovely plant.

Hello everyone! How are you doing? Yesterday in my mother's garden I found a flower that I liked so much. Of course I am telling you about calendula. Because of this fact, I started to surfing the Internet to find some information about it and I found some facts that can be very usefull for...

I must admit that I had indeed thought of planting them outside. They get a good amount of light - full sun for a few hours in the morning as they're in an east facing window.

Thanks Marley Farley for the Pheasant Berry suggestion, which I will look into.

Thanks Verdun! That's reassuring to know!!

Hi @silu I've always trimmed mine and they've been ok and last year I had to thin them out a bit as they was growing wide covering the garden lights...I have 5 in total across the decking front.

I would not chance leaving dahlias in an unheated greenhouse at this time of year. It depends what you are trying to do, bring them on early? I leave some of my less precious Dahlias in the ground over-winter, some die but others survive and poke their new shoots above ground in late May without...

I planted some Dutch Iris bulbs around this time last year and they, very kindly, flowered for me a few months later. As did the Dahlia tubers I planted at the same time, despite warnings that they shouldn't be planted until after the last frost. However - I must stipulate I am in the SE of...

Never mind the flower, who's the mec?

Forget me @redstar I do have my moments
