acanthus Bears Breeches

Hi does anyone have a piece of this they couldshare???? Or seeds??? Or could tell me where the seeds are and how to harvest them if I find someone who has one?? Thanks Shirley

marclay,
...I am also searching for seeds or divisions and a few others here are too. I know of a person that has one,but the plant is very young and has not even bloomed as of yet.:~(
....I guess we should all pool our resources ,eh?
Later,

I'm trying to remember marclay. I had one in 2002, but didn't make it this year. I did get seeds from it last year and not sure if I still have them, but I'll check and if so you are welcome to them. Seems they were just smaller than a pea and black and were in the spiny cones. Will let you know,

Marclay just wanted to update you. I received the seeds but there were only a few so I decided to germinate them. I am anixous to see if I get a nice plant. Will share them with other DGer's, when it blooms I will let you know.
Actually I am jumping ahead of myself, hopefully they germinate. I am trying the baggie method for two and the soil medium for the other 3 seeds.

Will keep you updated.

Thanks girls We will get acanthus surely wont we??? Shirley

I planted 3 this year. I got them from wayside gardens 75% off sell. If they survive the winter. I would be more than happy to share.

Sorry, spoke to soon, checked the seeds last eve and don't have any left. Once again should have looked before I leaped!

Thanks Candee

Yep, thanks for nothing Candee LOL, next time will look before leaping. Maybe I'll get another one next spring and do the seed thing again. Believe our winter was too harsh for a lot of things as this was my first year without a single glad, and I had some gorgeous glads in prior years.

Always have to lift glads her. Always haveat least one night of -30 WC except for year before last.
