Comments (5)I planted so many flowers this year! I still can't believe I bought so many! It started out with the Butterfly bush two years ago. When I saw how many butterflies came I was amazed! So I started to look them up and that was pretty much it for me! I went for a walk to find Milkweed and found cats on it and I was hooked.. So far I planted or purchased Zinnas(which I love now) Daylilies,Lavender,5 Milkweed plants,Columbine,Blanketflower, Sneezeweed, Tickseed, Daisies, Nasturiums,Plantain, Petunias, Phlox- A couple of Dill and Fennel plants, Purple Coneflowers, and two wildflower baskets, they have different types of whatever in them. I got a lot of my seed from Edith from Florida, she owns the Butterfly farm I believe.. I also bought another Butterfly Bush too and planted it on the side of my house, then I built a garden around it~ Yesterday I went back to see what else they had and I picked up Parsley and more Milkweed. I was surprised that they had Dutchmans' Pipe there. It had a big write up on it about the Pipevine Swallowtails laying eggs on it. I didn't think we had them in PA?! I also picked up a ton of Sunflower seeds and they are all growing nicely. So I think I am ready for the butterflies to say the least...I just enjoy them so much that I want them around more. Plus it helps that I love flowers and gardening.. Sorry for the long post~ Aggie...See Morewow..so whats the best way to start growing big plants
Comments (9)oh my god.. =: i looked at that HTV thing and skimmed through it.. that's so insane having to use a quilt for your 983791827396lb pumpkin and vacuuming ur cabbage!! pretty much everything i've tried to grow has died. i killed the worm farm i had in the 6th grade, my succulents turned red and fell apart, all my ferns shrivelled up within about a week. i think the only thing that actually grew was a carrot that seeded by accident in the middle of our lawn lol @$%#^?*!! my god.. right now, having a pumpkin grow to 2lb would be a notable achievement. what do you have to do to like first off not kill everything you touch, and then make it grow to a completely insane size? =\!!!!...See MoreIs there is some way I can grow a Sandbox tree here in Zone 9a?
Comments (4)Hi Dustin, Hope I'm not too late & that my contribution will be of some help to those who like to live responsibly dangerous. I don't know what climate is like in zone 9, but I live in Colorado. 1. Buy pots from reputable seller (I got mine from ebay) 2. Scarify 1 side of pod with sandpaper 3. Soak pod overnight until it doubles in size 4. Plant tip of pod in a peat pellet. (I used normal size but you can use a bigger size) 5. Put pellets with pod in a plastic greenhouse (walmart sells pellets in greenhouse) on heat mat (timer set to warm house 3hr/1hr off). 6. Germination time 1 month but sporadic....See Moreviciousfishes05
