I often Wonder do we need all the Modern Comforts
in our Hobby. Fertilizers...compost...Liquid Feeds
Propagators Greenhouses Tunnels Under Propagator
Heaters.Cloches etc etc ???
Throw it in the Ground and let NATURE DO ITS WORK
Why not sit back and read that Gardening Book!! ::)
i grow that, Palustris-the packet said frost tender, treat as annual! mine last a couple of years before disappearing, but i've not seen them flowering this early-how odd.
Grows like a weed in my garden, have the red and an apricot colour. Don't you find it curious smelling when you hack it back?
