I just picked up a Rose Canterbury Bell plant on sale with the most beautiful pink blooms on it's stalk from top to bottom! But wouldn't you know it, I read online that it's a biennial which makes me sad, but if I let the blooms go to seed, will… More
this is the hollyhock i wintersowed Dec. of 2005. it bloomed it's first year even though it's considered biennial. i saved every single seed from the 2006 blooms thinking i would have to start them again. the germination rate on this particular cultivar tends to be poor. it not only… More
Biennials, mean they grow 1year, then the 2nd year they flower, seed, and die. I'm looking at planting a biennial next year and was recommended by an avid gardener to plant 1/2 my seeds next year and the other 1/2 the following year!!! I was also told that perennials won't… More
I thought it would be fun to share what we thought of our new perennials/biennials. Because they are perennial(biennial), include those that you planted 2-3 years ago as well: My faves: Crocasimia Lucifer, 2nd year- gorgeous foliage, fabulous red blooms that hummers love, didn't bloom until second year, but worth… More
I am looking for angelica seeds. This is a biennial medicinal herb, but a very cool-looking plant to boot! I grew this in Wisconsin years ago but was unsuccessful saving seeds. It seems that the seeds only retain their viability for a very short time. Anyone? More
One seed I am looking forward to planting in the upcoming season is the Candy Mountain Foxglove! It is a hardy biennial. http://www.tmseeds.com/product/4471.html Most digitalis have downward facing flowers. This variety has flowers that face upward! Their fields of foxglove photos looks lovely too. Apparenty this comes in one color… More
Anyone know what this is, many of you do I am sure. Appears along highway roadsides and the like. Popped up in my front yard and I have spared it and allowed it to grow without weeding it out, and though it has that weedy appearance, the huge furry leaves… More
I posted this in "Herbs" but this forum gets more traffic. Anyone have seeds for this biennial? Thanks! More
I planted my brussels sprouts back in August. Now they are 2-3 feet tall. They look healthy but not a sign of sprouts. I read they are biennial plants grown as annuals and the harvesting period should be between 80 to 100 days, so... they are waaaaaaaay overdue!!! What should… More
I have Rome, Cortland, and Yellow Delicious apple trees. Last year I had the best crop I've had in their 20 year existence. This year only the Cortland had blossoms on it. The other 2 didn't have one. I've noticed the YD seems to produce scattered years, but I hadn't… More
