That would certainly be an interesting experiment, maybe with any surplus seeds. Only thing would be weed seedlings coming up, apart from ones you're familiar with, but could be fun 👍😊🌸😀 @cyndi

Worth a try, but not a lot you can do with weed seeds already there, but sounds interesting 👍

I only got 2 to reach flowering stage last year, but will be trying them again. I saw a lot flowering very well in the much more favourable weather of Kansas last year, so hopefully they will do well for you @jennlamaye 👍😊

@jeatacake I got potentially two different kinds last night from the seed swap. I’ll send you some! 💕

Thanks @vec Looks like these will be my only 2 to flower. The others look a bit sickly.

I love these!! I planted some and they didn't come up 😞 I used to get so many compliments and asking what are those strange looking things.
