Personally have grown both Ceph. alpina and gigantea, from seed I got at T&M back in the 90's. So some of my seed is old, But did get some in a trade a year ago and it didn't grow, so am hoping the older seed will sprout..and even will try some in the garden. I have a friend that has one in his garden, not sure which tho, anyway he gave me a baby from his garden, hope it makes it thru the winter and come spring I get a nice sized baby and some blooms.!

Evelyn....Have all my Asclepias sprouted now, all were started on 1/16, am giving germination dates for me using my method:
Asclepias incarnata Pink, 1/22
syriaca, 1/20
tuberosa, 1/20
variegata, 1/22
As of this morning I have 59 pots that have sprout out of 125, almost half in just 11 days. I check twice a day, and move any sprouted to another tray so I can keep track. Aquilegias should be any day now and will let you know when they do.

If there is any specific info on any of those I've already listed just ask. Will try to figure out how to get a spread sheet here or into my files at Dave's but til then ask and I'll share the info.

NOTE: I sent a d-mail to ADMIN to see if they can create some sort of a spreadsheet in our Diary or personal info area that we have the option to use for such info on seed starting. That way we could all use the same style and share amonst ourselves. Everyone else is welcomed to send them one also...maybe we can get something if they realize it would be much appreciated by those of us that grow from seed or those wanting to. Later....Kathy
