Another one of your great P. tubaeflorus photos. Last year I bought seeds for this & kept them in the fridge & I now have 12 little peat pellets of seedlings. They germinated within a matter of days under the lights. I'm hoping come next year I will have some plants that look like yours. Excellent photo peachespickett.
Glad to hear you've got seedlings! The Husker's Red died over winter, but the tubaeflorus is still going strong, and has reseeded. Hopefully I'll see your pics here later in the year!Good luck!
Yeah, I'd say so. We had record amounts of rain this winter and all last year in West Arkansas, seven inches in one night, it was just soggy all winter long. The one in the pics made it through all winter and didn't die back, looks great, and has some offspring coming up. They are in a northeast facing bed and get no sun for a few months in winter. I clipped off their flower spikes a few weeks after they went to seed, I imagine they would grow even better if I clipped them off before they went to seed but I wanted them to. I'll post some more pics of them in a day or two, and some more this summer.
