I have them , but they are VERY difficult to transplant at this time . Fall is a better time to attempt transplant . JMO

Hi woollady! I just wanted to mention that those new growths are not necessarily new plants, just parts of your plant, and you will not want to divide them. Each growth, even if it won't bloom again, is a great source of energy to those growths that will eventually bloom for you. You always want a minimum of three growths in a pot. Also, ladyslippers really, really like repotting. I repot mine every single year. Since they don't like to be dry too long, the medium tends to break down pretty quickly and this is something ladyslippers don't enjoy. And I have one final suggestion. You mentioned that your lights were on 14 hours per day. Do you ever vary the length of the day? For example, for December and January, my lights are on for 12 hours a day. For February, March and April, that'll go up to 14 hours per day. For May, June, July and August, they'll be on 16 hours per day. In September, October and November, the day will be shorten to 14 hours per day, then to 12 hours per day for December and January... You get the picture. This simulates the seasons and changes up the routine, which can often encourage blooming in plants. I've included a link below to a culture sheet for indoor growers. Hope this all helps!

Pairiemoon2 - Thank you very much. I think False Solomon's Seal has more leaves then these little guys. False Lily of the Valley only have two. But they are very similar. I will post another picture of that pot latter in the season. I'm so glad you liked it. I thought it made a nice combination. The plants across from the Blue Eyed Grass are English Daisies. They are a perennial continuous bloomer. They are in bloom when the snow melts in spring and they are in bloom when the snow flies in winter. I am deadheading like crazy. If anyone is interested in some seed just send me an email. Carrie

Can anyone tell me when they bloom in Connecticut? I was married June 10...and I know I carried them in my wild flower bouquet (with lily-of-the-valley, a bit of native laurel, buttercups and jack-in-the-pulpet) So I think it is too early to look for them in the woods...but I don't even see the distinctive two fuzzy leaves yet! Don't 'ya just love this time of year! Marie
