Last year was a phenomenal growing season for my Cleome. Most reached 7'+ by end of season (with regular deadheading). I have a thousand or more seeds - not about to count them. Some are dark and some very light - I hope those (light seeds) are not "duds". I'll be glad to send a good pinch in a SASE. (I est. 200)
NOTE:
Cleome is very tricky to germinate, at least around here. I have finally been sucessful by setting a pepared flat with a dome cover out side starting in March.
According to Tom Clothier's database, Cleome need fluctuating temperatures to germinate. I also observe that the fairly small seeds should be surface sowed, pressed into dampened starting medium, but not covered.
(I don't have a lot more room to start seeds, but would do anything to get a few unique Heucheras.)
Have Cleome seed for SASE
Green,
I would like some for sase- and THANKS!!
Gosh Greenknee, I didn't have any trouble germinating the white cleome. I didn't know any better, so I did cover them, but I did have them on a heat mat and it looked like all of them came up. I got a bunch up anyway. I've just planted the purple and pink so don't know how they'll do.
Greenknee,
I couldn't find your addy in the address exchange. Could you please email it to me? I'm in the addy exchange.
We're having an ice storm here so I will have to wait til Mon to send your sase.
BTW.....Do you want a reg envelope or a bubble envelope to send my seeds back to me in?
THANKS!!!
Dear Greenknee,
I'd like to try some for sase if they are still available. Just let me know your address via private email. Thanks!
Gemila
