Post #6783169

Just for fun to see if I could do it, I planted tangutica seeds that I ordered from Park Seed. I started them in the house in early March and they actually germinated. I put all of the tiny little vines in a flower pot and sat it next to a Direct TV satellite dish that is no longer being used (no local channels available.) They keep growing taller and I hope it eventually covers the ugly dish. I have no idea whether I will see blooms which I understand are suppose to be small and yellow.

Have any of you had any experience with growing this from seed and, if so, should I expect blooms this year? Also, how tall will it probably grow?

BTW, beware, gardeners, when you go out after dark to check for slugs or to turn off the hose as I did last night. I almost stepped on a moccasin (sp?)snake which was enjoying the cool concrete under our shed where my faucet is located. He got away from us last night, but this a.m. I awoke to the sound of DH actually using the Stihl weed eater I bought last August. He actually killed him with the weed eater while finally cleaning up the area around his shed. Now I know how to get his attention and get things done!
