Seed/plant lists

have checked and will post it soon as you pm address.

 

How do you harvest the seeds from penstemon, I have several varieties but have not thought about taking seeds from them?

 

haven't done it either - have alway taken cuttings.... They work well!

 

seeds received dendrobium - thanks again!

 

Badsal - if you allow the blossom to pass, the seed pod will fill out. You need to do this with the first flowering - in the UK it is pretty unlikely that a second flush penstemon will be early enough to ripen the seed.

Generally, most penstemmons are notoriously cross pollinating so will probably not come true if you have grown them near each other, but you might come up with something more interesting. The easiest way to propagate if you want the same plant is by cutting or division.

 

you're welcome, sparkle!

Fancy, maybe it's better edit your address details from here and PM instead? Just a heads up.

 

Quite right, LB - I'm contacting the mods to get it removed - I've got the adddress

 

Thanks Pete! :D

Hi, Fancy!
HAve just parcelled up the seeds you wanted, and have put in both types of runner beans, the dwarf and the enorma - should be one extreme to the other!!

Hope they work well for you. I've written the full names of the seeds, and the seed company, so if you want to check the sowing instructions, you can check up on the sites, partic re the leek, where they say to use water to "earth up"!

If anyone else wants any of the seeds, I still have some of most of them, although there's only enough for one more person for the lovage, leeks and swiss chard now.
