How do you store them to keep them through the winter? <br /><br />I continued with my experiments this afternoon and got various perennial seeds scattered in spots where I first scraped aside the inches-thick mulch. One plant that I saw pictures of online, growing wild, I ordered seeds of and am trying it out in a few places. I've never tried to grow any kind of coneflower from seed before. It doesn't naturally grow in your area or mine. <br /><br />http://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/PlantFinder/PlantFinderDetails.aspx?kempercode=c570 <br /><br /><i>echinacea pallida</i> They say it is tolerant of "drought, heat, and poor soil" and blooms over a long summer period. That sounds like my kind of plant :-) GretchenJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641677400029070452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-15219019641259391242016-10-29T09:29:52.736-06:002016-10-29T09:29:52.736-06:00I wondered what the heck happened to my potatoes. ...I wondered what the heck happened to my potatoes.
