Beautiful Double Bloodroot
Comments (30)shadeyplace. Sorry you had problems with folks you traded with thru the mail. I guess you must have ran across some difficult folks. I trade and send using Priority Mail, always 2-3 days, and only send early thru the week so plants do not sit at post office over the week-end. Perhaps you may have sent them to wet or too dry. Knowing how each plant grows and how the " nurseries or growers" ship, it is easy. They have to ship their plants when ordered thru the mail, but it can be confusing. I understand it is easier to share with neighbors and folks that live close by. Never meant for anyone to think we would expect you or anyone else to be a mail order nursery. Perhaps you may have sent them to wet. Good luck with your gardening and I understand about your not wanting to mail plants, it is understandable,...See MoreHAVE: dutchmens breeches,bloodroot,trillum,trout lilly
Comments (8)Our pink lady slipper orchids have been nearly missing the last couple of years. I'm suspecting the drought is involved. When conditions are good, we have a bunch. We just spotted a couple of Carolina Lily, too. There aren't enough of those to dig, but I can keep an eye out for seed structures. I'm interested in bloodroot. All of our offerings are wild-growing on our land, so we must watch seasons for transplanting. Any suggestions on how to make lady's slipper propagate/transplant successfully?...See MoreIs your bloodroot up?
Comments (13)I'm watching this with great interest because in fall 2014 I planted 5 dormant single bloodroot plants in a spot I thought they'd really like and would naturalize. There was no sign of them in spring 2015 and so far nothing this year either. I won't give up yet but it doesn't look good. Claire...See Morenot bloodroot, but...
