Evelyn...I just love that rose too. I got it from someone who had brought me one in a 1 gallon years ago, dug from their garden. It's only a spring bloomer and I don't have a name for it. It does spread and I've tried getting it started from a few stems, some sucessful, some not so much... I do know I need to get a patch of it started here where I live, just have to decide where I want it since it will roam and spread a bit, tho not much in the way of a root system. (sorry, I planted it at my daughter's house and is going crazy there.) Oh, ya, it smells good too!

Pam...out of 15 seeds of the Dianthus a. I've got 5 sprouted so far, fingers are crossed they aren't done yet. Yup just a sprinkling of vermiculite, not even sure if I go 1/4" deep except for big seed. Nothing on the Cephalarias yet, (come on, please, please, please!).

Up to 82 pots as of this morning. (of 125), sprouted. I'm starting another tray now to fill in those I'm taking out as sprouts appear. I keep them under a dome for several days yet and when I feel like they are strong enough I then move them to an open air tray. Will try to get some pix this week, haven't taken any this year yet so I guess it's time.. So far NO special treatment on any...yet. Just lights and warmth, oh ya LOVE..lol. Got my first Aquilegia (Winky Blue) up this morning, started 1/14, sprouted 1/26, 12 days. and no frige.. Many more are just about ready, seeds are split and ready to send out that first root.

Snow on the way here for later today and overnight, yeah!!! Ok, off to check out a few things and then to seeding.... Later all, have a good day! Kathy
